yeah thats what I thought and the problem is Perl came installed under /usr/bin by default. Obviously is was compiled by cc_r and currently I am trying to get a trial version of XLC IBMs AIX C compiler.

Was the perl compiled with cc_r or gcc? It seems from the output that perl expects cc_r otherwise it wouldn't have unrecognized options, and I suspect it tried that first? You will either need to match the compiler that perl was originally built with, or compile a new perl with gcc.... But I am not a build expert, there are a few of those here, but if you get really stuck there are lots on the p5porters list. http://danconia.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
