Problem compiling ruby on AIX 5.2

[Lars Kromann]

Hi

I am trying to compile ruby for AIX 5.2 but I ran into some problems.
The build I am working with is a stable snapshot of ruby 1.8.1 which is
compiling on our AIX 4.3.3.
When I try to compile the same build on the AIX 5.2 the configure runs ok
but make gives me the
following error:

root@XXXXX:/test/ruby:-> make
gcc -g -O2 -I. -I. -c array.c

Stop.

The to machines have the following configuration:

AIX 4.3.3
VisualAge C++ Professional / C for AIX Compiler, Version 5
autoconf-2.53-1
automake-1.5-1

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? Could it be the
compiler?

I expect that stable snapshot works.
