Comment:

 This test ("checking for specified models") appears to be the first test
 that uses awk. From the configure.in:

 {{{
 AC_MSG_CHECKING(for default model)
 DFT_LWR_MODEL=`echo "$cf_list_models" | $AWK '{print $1}'`
 AC_MSG_RESULT($DFT_LWR_MODEL)
 }}}

 Earlier in your log it showed that it looked for and found gawk and is
 therefore using that as your awk program:

 {{{
 checking for mawk... no
 checking for gawk... gawk
 }}}

 It does this on my system too and it works fine here but perhaps there is
 something the matter with your gawk program? What happens if you try to
 use gawk manually on the command line? If you just type "gawk" it should
 print a usage message if everything is working.
