What's the content of config.log? 

libm should be detected by configure, so there is something wrong 
with your libm

Please use the Ports Infrastructure as described eg. in the 
Porter's Handbook. Simply doing 'make install' in /usr/ports/lang/mawk 
should be sufficient. 
Please get back to us on the freebsd-questions mailinglist if you 
need further advice!
