In the meantime, I tried using a SRC RPM for gcc 4.4.0 instead 4.5.0 and got the same error at a different point in the build. I've contacted the builder of the GCC package for AIX, michael perzl at perlz.org, who builds his OpenSource packages with the IBM xlc compiler instead of with Gcc. I don't like paying for IBMs compiler since their support is so expensive and their commitment to Open Source has fallen way off. The versions of Open Source that they distribute, including Gcc are usually prehistoric and often don't even work. With Gcc 4.1.1, we had to get a consultant to rebuild it, but we traced that to the fact that the second stage build was trying to use the newly built ld from binutils, which will never work on AIX. The AIX linker is a world unto itself. Michael Perzl has some AIX patches on his website for gcc that might be worth looking at but they are for older versions and they may not be correct. I will test and get back to you. Thanks, Richard Nolde Open Source Developer (tiffcrop from LibTiff )
