It is kind of a minimalist phony roff implementation that comes with IRIX to convert unformatted man page source to plain text.  It's nowhere near as full featured as the real deal which only comes in the Documenter's Workbench add-on.  It is almost certainly installed on your IRIX boxes, so a simple 'man awf' will tell you more about it.  I think it stands for 'amazingly workable formatter' but the similarity to 'awful' is no accident, IIRC.
