 I just installed macports for the first time on a new mac system, and when
 I tried to port install sqlite3 (indirectly, as a dependency of
 subversion), it failed to build with errors that looked like incomplete
 commands (starting with -f ..).

 After further investigation I found an empty NAWK variable in the sqlite
 makefile (NAWK=) which caused rules of the form: $(NAWK) -f whatever, to
 be issued as: -f whatever.

 When I filled in this variable and tried to install the port again,
 everything worked fine.
