The patch is located at X and the Awk script in there looks as follows

 1  BEGIN {
 2      FS="       "
 3      printf("(defvar readings-table\n\
 4         (make-char-table 'readings-table nil)\n\
 5         \"Char table of definitions for East Asian characters.\")\n")
 6  }
 7  /^#/ { next }
 8  /kDefinition/ {
 9      sub(/^../, "#x", $1)
10      printf("(aset readings-table %s \"%s\")\n", $1, $3)
