1)I just got aix64-cc shared build succeed with -bautoexp. It was possible to
modify Makefile pretty similar to aix43-cc.
*******************************************************************
SHARED_LDFLAGS=-q64
...................................................................
# AIX: $(CC)
ALLSYMSFLAG=-bnogc
SHAREDFLAGS=${SHARED_LDFLAGS} -G -bautoexp -bM:SRE
SHAREDCMD=$(CC)
do_aix-shared:
libs='-L. ${SHLIBDEPS}'; for i in ${SHLIBDIRS}; do \
( set -x; \
ld -b64 -r -o lib$$i.o $(ALLSYMSFLAG) lib$$i.a && \
( \
$(SHAREDCMD) $(SHAREDFLAGS) \
-o lib$$i.so.${SHLIB_MAJOR}.${SHLIB_MINOR} lib$$i.o \
$$libs ${EX_LIBS} ) ) \
|| exit 1; \
libs="$$libs -l$$i"; \
done
********************************************************************
Therefore, for both 32 and 64 bits we can now build shared libraries
with -bautoexp as well as with *.exp files.
2)You are right, the version openssl-0.9.7 did not contain 0.9.7
extention for aix but in my changes (which appear to be in snapshot
version) I included these extentions to be consistent with other
platforms where shared build contain these extention.
I made experimental builds without extentions just for myself;
I didn't send you such changes to Makefile. The reason I did that for
myself is that if you link a module, say module.so with soname
libcrypto.so.0.9.6, you can not then dynamically load it with
libcrypto.so.0.9.7. However, if you link module.so with libcrypto.so
(by modified Makefile from, say, openssl-0.9.6), you can dynamically
load it with either version as they have symbolic links to libcrypto.so
(we are not physically including libssl.so... & libcrypto.so... into
our software and SSL connection will work if the user installs openssl
himself). On solaris and linux it worked, but on aix caused problems
(I didn't check for Windows yest but expect it should work).
But this is not so important at that time, you don't have to worry.

As you don't appear to be interested in 64-bit build I've decided to
settle for following. We leave the code as is [as in
openssl-0.9.7-stable-SNAP-20030119.tar.gz or later] and document the
aix64-cc case in PROBLEMS in wait for more appropriate solution
(covering even gcc:-). BTW. Can use verify if following works:
- ./Configure aix64-cc shared;
- env OBJECT_MODE=64 make;

But I still want to hear about this. Cheers. A.
