FYI, here is the /etc/make.conf

# cat /etc/make.conf
CPUTYPE?=pentium4m
CFLAGS= -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer
COPTFLAGS= -O -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer

PERL_VERSION=5.8.8

>How-To-Repeat:
Probably using the same make.conf as stated above, and do make install clean under ports/www/w3m.
