Sorry, bad news - it didn't help (I used a freshly extracted
findutils-4.2.1.tar.gz with the new "configure" script), same error:

Here are the diffs of the configure runs (< new, > old):

Drat.  Here is a less horrid workaround.  Start with the original
4.2.1 distribution.  Run "configure" as normal.  Then edit
"findutils-4.2.1/config.h" and use a text editor add the line

#define intmax_t long long

(or alternatively "typedef long long intmax_t")

It  doesn't matter  where in  the  file you  put it,  but I'd  suggest
putting it at the bottom.  You may also need to perform a similar edit
in findutils-4.2.1/gnulib/config.h.

To make a better job of fixing this (i.e. making it work out of the
box) I would need access to an AIX 4.3 system, which I currently don't
have.

Sorry, I am now very short in time. A first attempt with your first suggestion (in findutils-4.2.1/config.h and findutils-4.2.1/gnulib/config.h) wasn't successful. I will try tommorow also your second suggestion.

Greetings

Jens
