Successfully compiled 1.3.1 on AIX 5.2 /w Visual Age C++ 6.0 after some tweaking

[Ronald_Horrell]

Hi All,
        I was finally able to successfully compile version 1.3.1 on AIX 5.2 /w 
Visual Age C++ after some tweaking.

System Details:

   Compiler: VisualAge C++ Compiler Version 6.0.0.5
   OS: AIX 5.2.0.0

C/C++ Flags: 

   "-qcpluscmt" or "-+" Allows C++ comments "//" in C files.  
   "-qlanglvl=redefmac" Allows macros to be redefined without #undef 
"_THREAD_SAFE"

configure Flags:
   "--enable-static --disable-shared": Personal preference
   "--without-exceptions": Needed due to use of "dynamic_cast without RTTI" 
error.

config.h:
   HAVE_SYS_LIBCSYS_H: Had to be commented out due to errors with memcopy 
declarations.

libtool:
   "${CC/${host}-}": "bad substitution error" (lines 904 and 1297) had to 
comment out check.


        With these changes it compiles and runs successfully.  


Note:
   The VisualAge C++ Compiler doesn't like "#pragma pack()" and gives numerous 
warning messages. With this compiler you would need to do "#pragma 
pack(nopack)" instead.

Thanks,
Ron Horrell
