It looks a problem of gc.

I tried to run w3m with the latest boehmgc-devel on Lion and it works! 

% port installed w3m
The following ports are currently installed:
  w3m @0.5.3_0 (active)
% sudo port -f deactivate boehmgc
% sudo port install boehmgc-devel
% w3m http://www.nytimes.com

I attached a patch to port:w3m that allows both of boehmgc and bohemgc-devel.
