Jake: I don't have any personal experience with the GNU Toolchain on the AIX platform, but since no one else responded I'll have a go.
If the GNU utils on AIX even remotely resemble the discord of Solaris, then I can digress. This is however unrelated to the as(1) problem you mentioned as best I can tell. This is a ld(1) issue. In my experience, normally when this happens, a .c file is trying to reference a C function linked in from a shared library (.{,s}o). In this case, a bunch of .o's are being linked into a final binary. However bacula-1.38.8/src/console/*.{c,h} shouldn't be referencing win32_client* functions at all if GNU Autoconf did it job(r). I would be very curious to see if some #IFDEF'd win32 code maybe got included because of your non-standard platform or because the pre-processor is messed up. You can tell with gcc(1) -E. Also, try nm(1) on all of these .o's (console.o console_conf.o authenticate.o conio.o) and grep -i for "win32". Posting configure.log from that directory and the master source root to a URL somewhere might be very insightful to the developers. ~BAS > ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: win32_client > ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: TERM_msg > ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: OK_msg > ld: 0711-345 Use the -bloadmap or -bnoquiet option to obtain more > information. > collect2: ld returned 8 exit status > make[1]: *** [bconsole] Error 1 > make[1]: Leaving directory > `/home/live/revinetix/bacula-1.38.8/src/console' > ====== Error in /u/live/revinetix/bacula-1.38.8/src/console ====== > > So how do I link to where it failed: > > ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: win32_client > ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: TERM_msg > ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: OK_msg > > I also read the README.AIX file included in the tarball and it > mentioned a bug in the "as" compiler, although it applied for an > earlier version of gcc (gcc version 2.9-aix51-020209).
