Hi

I'm trying to make Parrot 0.0.8.1 on AIX 4.3.3.  When I run 'perl
Configure.pl'
I get the following output:

$ perl Configure.pl 
Parrot Version 0.0.8 Configure 2.0
Copyright (C) 2001-2002 Yet Another Society

Hello, I'm Configure.  My job is to poke and prod your system to figure out 
how to build Parrot.  The process is completely automated, unless you passed
in
the `--ask' flag on the command line, in which case it'll prompt you for a
few
pieces of info.

Since you're running this script, you obviously have Perl 5--I'll be pulling

some defaults from its configuration.

Checking MANIFEST...done.
Setting up Configure's data structures...done.
Checking for --miniparrot...done.
Loading platform hints file...(no hints) done.
Enabling debugging...(none requested) done.
Determining what C compiler and linker to use...done.
Determining what types Parrot should use...done.
Determining what opcode files should be compiled in...done.
Setting up experimental systems...done.
Determining what pmc files should be compiled in...done.
Determining your minimum pointer alignment...Can't determine alignment!
$

When I compile the test script, I get the following output:

$ cd config/auto/alignptrs
$ cp test_c.in robin.c
$ cc -o robin robin.c 
$ for i in 64 32 16 8 4 2 1
> do
> ./robin $i
> done
64 OK
32 OK
16 OK
8 OK
4 OK
2 OK
1 OK
$

Any suggestions?
