Ok, it cleans and know that gnomemeeting needs this..

Umm, isn't it supposed to be build the pwlib and openh323 by now in this 
step?

I don't know what's wrong in your system, but why don't you try to do 
following:

1) portsclean -C (to rm -rf all work, fastest and better way to clean than 
use the 'make clean')
2) Go to net/gnomemeeting and do the 'make install' ..

If it doesn't build the pwlib and openh323, then you can try this:

1) Go to devel/pwlib and do the 'make'
2) Go to net/openh323 and do the 'make'
3) Try it again, do the 'make install' in the net/gnomemeeting

I can't promise you if I will solve your problem, but I hope so and I am 
trying.. :-)
