> builds are unchanged; the patch should affect only bootstrap builds.

By "bootstrap builds" you mean "builds from the Bzr repository".  As it
turns out, these are the most important builds, I think.

So the problem I see with your patch (whose goal I agree with) is that
it adds a dependency on Awk, which is probably going to be a problem for
the Windows contributors.

Why not replace leim/SKK-DIC/unannotation.awk with
leim/SKK-DIC/unannotation.el?
