Hi\,

  I had problem in compiling the perl 5.6.1 source code on AIX 5.2 using gcc 3.2.1 compiler.

  steps that I followed are​:   1. installed the gcc3.2.1 on AIX5.2   2. Downloaded and extracted the perl5.6.1.tar.gz from cpan.   3. executed the below command :   sh Configure -Dcc=gcc -Doptimize='-O2' -Uuselargefiles -Duserperlio \ -Uusesfio -Dcccdlflags='none' -des   its given the below output.

If you compile perl5 on a different machine or from a different object directory\, copy the Policy.sh file from this object directory to the new one before you run Configure -- this will help you with most of the policy defaults.

I am not able to run the make command successfully.

Can you please provide me what is going wrong....

perl has a makedepend script that uses the C compiler to work out the dependencies for the various files it will need to compile. gcc3.2.1 was released after perl5.6.1\, and perl5.6.1's makedepend script gets confused with the output from gcc3.2.1\, and doesn't remove some lines from the Makefile that it should have. Specifically it leaves in lines such as "\<built-in>" that you're seeing in the error message you report.

(The actual change to gcc was either gcc3.0 or gcc3.1\, I forget which\, but it's not really relevant here)

perl5.6.2 was released about 6 months ago to solve these sort of build issues\, so if you download and build perl5.6.2 instead of 5.6.1 you should have no problem​:

  ftp​://ftp.cpan.org/pub/CPAN/src/perl-5.6.2.tar.gz

I'm curious why you chose 5.6.1 instead of 5.6.2. I thought that all the links about "get perl" on perl sites were pointing to 5.6.2\, not 5.6.1 (And more likely 5.8.3 or 5.8.4\, as they are the most recent stable versions)

Looking for extensions... A number of extensions are supplied with perl5. You may choose to compile these extensions for dynamic loading (the default)\, compile them into the perl5 executable (static loading)\, or not include them at all. Answer "none" to include no extensions. Note that DynaLoader is always built and need not be mentioned here.

What extensions do you wish to load dynamically? [B ByteLoader Data/Dumper Devel/DProf Devel/Peek Fcntl File/Glob IO NDBM_File OD BM_File Opcode POSIX SDBM_File Sys/Hostname attrs re] What extensions do you wish to load statically? [none]

End of configuration questions.

Stripping down executable paths...

Creating config.sh...

If you'd like to make any changes to the config.sh file before I begin to configure things\, do it as a shell escape now (e.g. !vi config.sh).

Press return or use a shell escape to edit config.sh​:

Doing variable substitutions on .SH files... inside the make file.sh Extracting Makefile (with variable substitutions) Extracting Policy.sh (with variable substitutions) Extracting cflags (with variable substitutions) Extracting config.h (with variable substitutions) Extracting makeaperl (with variable substitutions) Extracting makedepend (with variable substitutions) Extracting makedir (with variable substitutions) Extracting myconfig (with variable substitutions) Extracting pod/Makefile (with variable substitutions) Extracting writemain (with variable substitutions) Extracting x2p/Makefile (with variable substitutions) Extracting x2p/cflags (with variable substitutions)

Now you need to generate make dependencies by running "make depend". You might prefer to run it in background​: "make depend > makedepend.out &" It can take a while\, so you might not want to run it right now.

Run make depend now?

If you compile perl5 on a different machine or from a different object directory\, copy the Policy.sh file from this object directory to the new one before you run Configure -- this will help you with most of the policy defaults.

No\, it meants that\, in the current state\, Configure (in combination with the hints) is not capable of figuring out how to use gcc on your system in your environment.

If gcc works for you for other projects\, then maybe we could change the hints to better detect yet-another-gcc-configuration for AIX

Now be sure to have gcc be found first in your $PATH. In my example\, the second part (with the libexec) should not be needed\, but since your Configure complains about not finding cc1\, which should be condidered fatal\, I've added it here.
