I deduce you are in mac osx.
This is our recommended method for compiling clam in mac:

http://iua-share.upf.edu/wikis/clam/index.php/Devel/Mac_OSX_build

As statet there we use the following macports (was darwinports)
dependencies:
   $ sudo port install xercesc pkgconfig libsndfile libogg libmad 
libvorbis fftw-single fftw cppunit qt3-mac id3lib

So the first thing to check is if you installed both
"fftw-single" and "fftw".  Did you?
