--- Comment #13 from Michael Felt <aixtools at gmail dot com> ---
As far as I know, GNU as and GNU ld have never been favored on AIX.
And, they are LAST in the PATH variable. In the initial attempts I had
read about the compare pass, that some hosts never succeed, and than a
tool in binutils was "missed" in the make process.

FYI: I only installed binutils after the first compare passes had failed.

And, ultimately, I may (be forced to) follow your recommendation.
Which I would consider a sad thing.
