Thank you! But still curious if you've been able to reproduce the problem, and why you didn't encounter this problem beforehand. > By the way, NLS works if you build and install GNU libiconv (1.14) and > add --with-libiconv-prefix=/prereq to force GCC bootstrap to use GNU > libiconv instead of AIX libiconv. Yes, but (you've asked) here is this situation I don't want to configure extra deplib-prefixes for (remember bullfreeware is listed as provider for gcc-binaries): * bullfreeware's libiconv-1.13.1 and gettext-0.17 is installed in /opt/freeware, * /usr/lib/libintl.a is symlinked to /opt/freeware/lib (by bullfreeware's RPM), * /usr/lib/libiconv.a is the original AIX' one. Now, /usr/lib/libintl.a needs /opt/freeware/lib/libiconv.a[libiconv.so.2], and it does contain the correct RUNPATH. But subsequent binaries linking against /usr/lib/libintl.a don't (necessarily) know about the need to add /opt/freeware/lib as RUNPATH, so these binaries break with libiconv.so.2 not being found as member of /usr/lib/libiconv.a, because AIX unfortunately does stop its shared-library search at the first archive filename found. This also is the main reason for my filename-based-shared-library-versioning thing. While this topic is related, it has different reasoning - but the result does work: [1] http://www.perzl.org/aix/index.php?n=FAQs.FAQs#toolbox-compatibility-issue /haubi/
