Comment(by lambert at burntmail.com):

 Thanks for reporting this.  I've experienced the same problem.  For the
 sake of completeness, can you specify what you filled in the NAWK variable
 with (awk or gawk)?

 Many thanks,

 Replying to [ticket:14523 nuclear@…]:
 > 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.
