Hello,
I am just trying to compile postgresql-9.0.4 on AIX 6100-06-03-1048
using gcc 4.4.6.
Unfortunately that was not all.
There was also:
"[Bug target/46072] AIX linker chokes on debug info for uninitialized
static variables"
This is an IBM bug in AIX's assembler (as) which causes corrupt object
code that is crashing when trying to execute it.
As far as I know IBM still not delived a fix for this. It seems that
they are not interested in this as IBM's xlc is not using the
assembler to create object code.
Does any one know whether there is an alternate way to compile
postgresql on AIX 6.1 using gcc???
I appreciate even the smallest hint!
I have compiled 9.0.4 on AIX 5.3 with GCC 4.1.1 without any issues.
(well the regression tests hit an issue on REL9_0_STABLE builds that
they don't hit with more recent branches but that is due to a makefile
related issue that I should post about in a different thread.
The buildfarm member grebe
(http://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_history.pl?nm=grebe&br=HEAD)
does this.
I do not have access to a AIX 6.1 machine
