Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Build Group: Python 2.5 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Johannes Abt (jabt) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) >Summary: AIX: configure ignores $CC; problems with C++ style comments Initial Comment: CC=xlc_r ./configure does not work on AIX-5.1, because configure unconditionally sets $CC to "cc_r": case $ac_sys_system in AIX*) CC=cc_r without_gcc=;; It would be better to leave $CC and just add "-qthreaded" to $CFLAGS. Furthermore, much of the C source code of Python uses C++ /C99 comments. This is an error with the standard AIX compiler. Please add the compiler flag "-qcpluscmt". An alternative would be to use a default of "xlc_r" for CC on AIX. This calls the compiler in a mode that both accepts C++ comments and generates reentrant code.
