It can't configure because it tried to configure before and failed. Clean gettext to continue:

You have MacPorts gawk installed, which uses MacPorts gettext, which is apparently not installed. Uninstall MacPorts gawk for now to continue. You may find other small utilities in similar situations (e.g. sed, grep) for which you should do the same thing (uninstall them). These utilities may get reinstalled automatically during the course of your installations, hopefully in the right order (i.e. after gettext). If not, you can reinstall them yourself at the end.
