Thanks for the reply Tom!
I managed to get the cvs version and I made more progress compiling tsearch2
Here is where it errors out.
touch libtsearch2.a
../../src/backend/port/aix/mkldexport.sh libtsearch2.a > libtsearch2.exp
gcc -O2 -Wall -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wendif-labels
-fno-strict-aliasing -Wl,-bnoentry -Wl,-H512 -Wl,-bM:SRE -o
libtsearch2.so libtsearch2.a -L../../src/port -L../../src/port -lm
-Wl,-bI:../../src/backend/postgres.imp -Wl,-bE:libtsearch2.exp

collect2: ld returned 8 exit status
gmake: *** [libtsearch2.so] Error 1
Any ideas?
TIA
