error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before - openssl 1.1.1 compilation

Hi,

During compilation of openssl 1.1.1g , i am seeing this error :
openssl/crypto/ec/ecp_nistz256_table.c:31: error: expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’,
‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘ecp_nistz256_precomputed’

options used : ./Configure no-threads no-dso no-shared no-zlib no-asm
no-engine no-bf no-camellia no-cast no-md2 no-md4 no-mdc2 no-ocsp no-rc2
no-rc5 no-hw no-idea no-srp gcc

Anyone has any idea why this error popped up & how to resolve these?.

Thanks,
Prudvi.

__attribute__

[Merritt, Maverick]

Hello,

I just wanted to point out that in the bio.h header file there is a define 
called __attribute__ in version openssl-0.9.8a that conficts with a similiar 
define in the apr.h header file that is in the newest apache httpd server 
(httpd-2.2.0).  To compile apache, I edit bio.h to comment out the 
__attribute__ define.

I am compiling on AIX, btw.

Sincerely,
Maverick Merritt
