Re: Xemacs 21.4.11 does not configure correctly and crashes at launch on AIX 5.1

On Fri, 10 Jan 2003 17:22:00 +0900, "Stephen J. Turnbull" said: I have an AIX 5.1 box here under my desk. Unfortunately, it's out to lunch at the moment - Something Evil happened to 'bosboot'. Filesystems are there, but installing the bootstrap mangles the LVM header on hd6 so it's not recognized as a boot LVM. I'll look into it as soon as I resurrect the box - if it looks like it will be more than 2-3 days I'll do it on another test box I have access to (but that one is *ancient* and builds will be painful). There's not that much diff between AIX5.1 and 4.3.3 - in fact, an lsof compiled for 4.3.3 worked just fine. % cat > s/aix5.h #define AIX5 #include <aix4-2.h> ^D % cat > s/aix5-1.h #define AIX5_1 #include <aix5.h> ^D I *THINK* that should do it, but I'll have to look into the part about 'ALL_SOURCE'. This may be compiler rev dependent, and whether you use the 'cc' or 'xlc' commands, and a few other things.... I'm getting a strange spider-sense tingling that this is an old IBM compiler bug. Does it happen if you recompile without -O? I'll check into it more as soon as I beat bosboot into submission (which may involve sneakernetting in patches on floppy, blech). /Valdis
