Problem compiling Python for AIX 5.2

[Lars Kromann]

Hi

I am trying to compile python 2.3.4 for AIX 5.2 but I ran into some
problems.
When I try to compile the build on the configure runs ok but make gives me
the
following error when i run:

configure --with-gcc --with-cxx=g++ --with-libm="" --disable-ipv6
make


./Modules/makexp_aix Modules/python.exp . libpython2.3.a; gcc
-Wl,-bE:Modules/python.exp -lld -o python Modules/ccpython.o
libpython2.3.a -ldl -lpthread

collect2: ld returned 8 exit status
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1.


Stop.

I then tried to edit the ld_so_aix from
CCOPT="$CCOPT -Wl,-bM:SRE -Wl,-T512 -Wl,-H512 -lm -o $objfile"
to
CCOPT="$CCOPT -Wl,-bM:SRE -Wl,-T512 -Wl,-H512 -brtl -bnortllib -lm -o
$objfile"

but that did not work either.

The machine has the following configuration:

AIX 5.2
g++-2.9.aix51.020209-3
gcc-2.9.aix51.020209-3
autoconf-2.53-1
automake-1.5-1

Does anybody have an idea to what the problem might be?
