This is a problem with the FreeBSD ports system, not with gawk itself. You
should contact whoever maintains gawk in the FreeBSD ports system.

I would suggest that you try building directly from source using the
canonical incantation:

        wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gawk/gawk-4.1.2.tar.gz
        gzip -d < gawk-4.1.2.tar.gz | tar -xpf -
        cd gawk-4.1.2
        ./configure && make && make check

If *that* fails, I would be interested in knowing how.

Thanks,

Arnold
