For --enable-languages=c,c++ only, I can bootstrap using --disable-libquadmath.
Haven't tried other languages needing their own target libraries.
But the problem isn't with libquadmath itself, but with config-ml.in setting
LD_LIBRARY_PATH to find the multilib-wise libstdc++.a, and (interesting enough)
the AIX 7.1 loader listening to LD_LIBRARY_PATH now.
Consider these simple commands to trigger the configure-error in
ppc64/libquadmath:
$ ./gcc/xgcc
xgcc: fatal error: no input files
compilation terminated.
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`/powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.0.0/ppc64/libstdc++-v3/src/.libs
./gcc/xgcc
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program ./gcc/xgcc because of the following
errors:
0509-150 Dependent module
/big1/local/src/test/gcc/gcc-4.7.0-RC-20120314/build/powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.0.0/ppc64/libstdc++-v3/src/.libs/libstdc++.a(libstdc++.so.6)
could not be loaded.
0509-103 The module has an invalid magic number.
Unfortunately, the AIX loader stops searching at the first matching archive
filename found,
even if it doesn't contain a matching shared object.
However, ldd shipped with AIX 7.1 still ignores LD_LIBRARY_PATH:
$ ldd ./gcc/xgcc
