The awk line wrapped.
fixmog is the next and last command all by itself
this version should be safe from wrapping and is also cut-pasteable:

cp /bin/kill /tcb/files/rootcmds/kill
cp /etc/auth/system/authorize /tmp/a
awk -F : '{if($1=="root") print $0",kill";else print $0}' \
/tmp/a >/etc/auth/system/authorize
fixmog
