Make is not interpeting the commands in the Makefile properly.

 install-cf:
         -       (test ! -f majordomo.cf  && echo "using sample.cf" && \
         +       -(test ! -f majordomo.cf  && echo "using sample.cf" && \
                         cp sample.cf $(W_BIN)/majordomo.cf; exit 0)
         -       (test -f majordomo.cf  && echo "using majordomo.cf" && \
         +       -(test -f majordomo.cf  && echo "using majordomo.cf" && \
                         cp majordomo.cf $(W_BIN)/majordomo.cf; exit 0)

If you will replace the '-' lines with the '+'lines, in your Makefile,
majordomo should install okay.

This URL has detailed intructions on getting Majordomo working with FreeBSD.
