I've experienced a very similar problem with configuration on AIX4.3.3.0.2 with xlC V5... The new V5 compiler works much better than V4 for most open source code, and "almost" configures for DX, but the configure script seems to have trouble with libstdc++ (which I thought was old?).
I am not much of a C++ programmer, but I also vaguely remember having to work around a streams.h location problem. If anyone wants a report on my progress so far on AIX4.3, with the newest xlC, let me know. I'll document it and try any simple suggestions you might have.
