A web spelling of the Scottish/Northern Irish slang boak (which occurs because "boke" looks like how you'd spell it) which can mean either vomit or dry heave (the dry boak).
On BBC Scotland when Rab C. Nesbitt asked, "Got a wee touch of the boak, eh doll?" a lot of folks might have thought he said "boke" -- if they could understand his Glaswegian at all.
