Re: building GNU gettext on AIX

I manually commented out HAVE_PTHREAD_API from config.h and produced a libintl.a without references to pthreads. Configuring GCC with that custom libintl.a enables NLS. I now am building GCC with NLS and we will see how well it functions. gettext depends on pthreads by default and the versions d

Re: building GNU gettext on AIX

Bruno, The issue appears to be that intl/gnulib-lib/{mbrtowc.c,setlocale_null.c} include pthread.h based on HAVE_PTHREAD_API, which is defined as 1 in intl/config.h build directory despite requesting --disable-pthreads. Thanks, David On Thu, Nov 16, 2023 at 11:35 AM David Edelsohn wrote: > I c

Re: building GNU gettext on AIX

I configured gettext with --disable-pthreads and libintl.a still contains references to pthread_mutex_lock and pthread_mutex_unlock, which causes NLS configure to fail on AIX. How can this be corrected? Thanks, David libintl.a[libgnu_la-mbrtowc.o]: - U __lc_charmap - U errno

Bruno, I have been able to tweak the environment and build gettext and libintl. With the updated libintl and environment, GCC reliably does not use NLS. The issue is that libintl utilizes pthreads. AIX does not provide no-op pthread stubs in libc. pthreads is an explicit multilib on AIX. It is
