Summary: Build Problems on AIX 4.3.3

Initial Comment:
Problems in building Python 2.2b1 in AIX 4.3.3 with IBM
vac++ compiler. I think the problem is not compiler
specific.

The build tries to execute the following code:
../Modules/makexp_aix Modules/python.exp ""
libpython2.2.a;   -Wl,-bE:Modules/python.exp -lld -o
python \
                Modules/ccpython.o \
                libpython2.2.a -ldl  -lpthread   -lm  

The first part executes ok:
../Modules/makexp_aix Modules/python.exp "" libpython2.2.a

In the second part the call to the linker is missing.
Something like :
xlC_r -Wl,-bE:Modules/python.exp -lld -o python
Modules/ccpython.o libpython2.2.a -ldl  -lpthread   -lm
dose the job

srubben: I don't understand your suggestion. What brackets?
Can you type in the correct line?

The following lines in the configure script (the check for
LINKCC) should be changed:
	case $ac_sys_system in
	AIX*)
	   LINKCC="\/Modules/makexp_aix Modules/python.exp
\\ \; $(LINKCC)";;

The brackets around the $(LINKCC) should be removed.
