I am installing apache 2.0.43 on AIX 4.3.2 using gcc version 3.2.3.

While installing (make) I am getting the following errors:

I searched for the similiar error and find the possible resolution is building gcc on aix 4.3.2 
definitely...  gcc's mangled copy of includes doesn't match your system, 
so you get a mismatch of old and new declearations

Please let me know if the resolution lies in building gcc on AIX m/c and if yes 
>then which gcc version should i go for.

the problem lies in gcc, so presumably building it on your box will fix 
it... maybe you can find out from gcc gurus how to run the procedure to 
re-mangle the includes ("fixincludes" is the name of the program or 
processing step)...  if so, I would appreciate hearing how to do that...

the only pre-built version of gcc I personally can vouch for as 
unproblematic with Apache 1.3/2.0 is IBM's RPM of gcc, but I believe it 
requires AIX >= 4.3.3  (google for >IBM RPM gcc AIX< to see for sure)
