Hi All,

I am trying to compile Postgres on an AIX machine but am getting the following error through the 'make' process

In file included from /merlin/perl5.10.1/lib/5.10.1/aix-thread-multi-64all/CORE/
op.h:633,                                                                      
                 from /merlin/perl5.10.1/lib/5.10.1/aix-thread-multi-64all/CORE/

                 from plperl.c:34:

gmake: *** [all] Error 2                                                       
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 2.

Perl is installed and working with out issue on this machine and if I take the -perl option out of the compile switches it installs fine.  Perl was compiled with gcc.

The compile options that I'm using are as follows :

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/pgsql837-64-perl --with-perl --with-pgport=5400 --enable-thread-safety --enable-integer-datetimes CC='gcc -maix64' LDFLAGS=-'Wl,-bbigtoc'

Any suggestions around this problem would be greatly appreciated, I'm trying to complile Postgres 8.3.7

Thanks
Francis
