    Hi Thomas,

    This is AIX-only.    It would be cleaner to move AIX-specific
    launcher
    to a new file like main_aix.c.  Have you considered that?


I rather not since this would unnecessarily increase complexity even further.

However, if you really dislike the platform specific code, I would withdraw the patch and just disable the test on AIX. I was on the fence about that anyway.


+1 disabling this test on AIX until the underlying issue is addressed.

Cheers, Thomas


    I don't know how to specify additional .c file in
    make/test/JtregNativeJdk.gmk  though.
