Emacs 21.1
In (the upcoming) awk-mode, if I do C-h m, the mode's key bindings
contain these four lines:
<C-M-e> c-end-of-defun
<C-M-a> c-beginning-of-defun
ESC C-e c-awk-end-of-defun
ESC C-a c-awk-beginning-of-defun
The first two are spurious, and I would not have expected to see them.
They are overshadowed by the last two.

(like "aa"), remove half of them (leaving, say, "a").

They are redundant only if M- == ESC, Normally it is, but it can be
changed by setting the `meta-prefix-char' (which I set to nil in my
.emacs). In my case M-c is different from ESC c.

Out of curiosity, what is the meaning of a nil meta-prefix-char?
Is it just that only ESC then gives meta- meaning (and not alt or any other
key)? The docstring for the variable doesn't mention this explicitly.
Cheers,

When I set meta-prefix-char to nil and do (global-set-key [M-foo] 'bar)
than the global map shows <nil> foo --> bar. The ONLY key combination
that will execute this `bar' command is the META key + foo (together).

In my version of cc-mode, c-end-of-defun is not bound to anything,
and I don't have your awk-mode, so could you show us the elisp code
used to bind those commands ? I.e. I think showing us the corresponding
`define-key' calls should be a good first step.
