2 possibilities:

1- You may have an old /usr/local/lib/libmap.a on your system and
mapscript linked against it by accident.  If you do have one then delete
it and recompile mapserver.  Make sure you do never 'make install' in
the mapserver directory in the future.

2- It could be that libwww is not installed on your system or could not
be found by configure.  The w3c-libwww version 5.4 is required for 
--with-wmsclient to work.  I would have expected configure to abort if
it doesn't find it but perhaps it just produces a warning.  Rerun
configure and check the configure output to verify that it does find
libwww.  If it doesn't then that's the problem you need to work on.
