Problems on AIX 4.3 and 5.2

[Marko Mäkelä]

Dear Sirs,

I'm having trouble on AIX 4.3 and 5.2 with files generated by
GNU automake 1.7.6 and GNU Autoconf 2.57 on GNU/Linux.

When I run ./configure on the AIX 4.3 box, I get this warning message:

checking sched.h usability... no
checking sched.h presence... yes
configure: WARNING: sched.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: sched.h: check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: sched.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to address@hidden ##
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------ ##
checking for sched.h... yes

The above is probably nothing serious.  But the following is:  When I
run make (the native one or GNU Make), I get errors regarding
.//filename.Po (not .deps/filename.Po, as I would expect).  Here's the
output from GNU Make 3.79.1:

Makefile:203: os0file.Po: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
Makefile:204: os0proc.Po: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
Makefile:205: os0shm.Po: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
Makefile:206: os0sync.Po: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.
Makefile:207: os0thread.Po: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.


These errors go away if I run "./configure --disable-dependency-tracking".
It does not matter if I use CC=cc or CC=gcc.  (CC=cc is only available
on the AIX 5.2 box, not on the AIX 4.3 box.  The AIX 4.3 box has GCC 3.2.)

Please let me know if you would like to have a reduced test case, or if
you would like me to run some test scripts on the AIX boxes.

With best regards,
