[Python-Dev] Can't build 3.7.3 on AIX

[Rob Boehne]

Hello,

I’m attempting to get a recent version of Python3 running on my UNIX build machines, but having a problem under AIX.
This seems like it might be since 3.6.5, but I’ve not actually attempted anything else other than 3.6.8 which fails similarly.
I’m building with the native C compiler in 64-bit mode, using OBJECT_MODE=64 exported in the environment.  I have attached config.log.
Is this a known issue? TIA - Rob
