<B>What steps will reproduce the problem?</B>
1. Check out V8 for AIX (errors below are shown when compiling Node which
includes V8 as a dependency but the same issue occurs if you compile master for
V8)
2. Compile targeting 64 bit
<B>What is the expected output</B> -> Expected out is successful compilation.
<B>What do you see instead</B> -> Many failures like these:

Changing the following lines in the file resolves the issue:
build/gyp/pylib/gyp/generator/make.py
LINK_COMMANDS_AIX = """\
quiet_cmd_alink = AR($(TOOLSET)) $@
- cmd_alink = rm -f $@ && $(AR.$(TOOLSET)) crs $@ $(filter %.o,$^)
+ cmd_alink = rm -f $@ && $(AR.$(TOOLSET)) -Xany crs $@ $(filter %.o,$^)
quiet_cmd_alink_thin = AR($(TOOLSET)) $@
- cmd_alink_thin = rm -f $@ && $(AR.$(TOOLSET)) crs $@ $(filter %.o,$^)
+ cmd_alink_thin = rm -f $@ && $(AR.$(TOOLSET)) -Xany crsT $@ $(filter %.o,$^)
quiet_cmd_link = LINK($(TOOLSET)) $@
cmd_link = $(LINK.$(TOOLSET)) $(GYP_LDFLAGS) $(LDFLAGS.$(TOOLSET)) -o $@ $(LD_INPUTS) $(LIBS)
There is a separate issue for the cmd_solink and cmd_solink_modules lines but
I'll open a separate issue for those as I believe the recreate instructions
would be different
Now that the level of V8 in Node includes the changes for PPC we are working to
get Node compiling in the community builds on AIX (plinux is already working)
and this change is required for it to compile on 64 bit
