Sridhar Ratnakumar <sridh...@activestate.com> added the comment:

It does appear that this problem occurs wherever `strlen` is used .. 
and given that strlen is a macro on AIX, I suspect the problem is with 
the macro definition itself.

I will see if wrapping the arguments to PyMem_MALLOC in parenthesis 
would help. And/or investigate the problem further.

As for your belief that it might be a compiler bug, I will wait till 
investigating the actual cause of the problem before drawing any 
conclusions. Till then, there is no reason to commit the current 
(experimental/workaround) patches to Python.
