I am trying to build Perl 5.8.7 on AIX 5.2.

I can build Perl as long as I do not define "use 64-bit all".  If I try and
build a version with full 64-bit support I get the following error somewhere
down in the compile:

          CCCMD =
 cc_r -DPERL_CORE -c -D_ALL_SOURCE -D_ANSI_C_SOURCE -D_POSIX_SOURCE -qmaxmem
=-1 -qnoansialias -DUSE_NATIVE_DLOPEN -DNEED_PTHREAD_INIT -I/usr/local/inclu
de -q64 -DUSE_64_BIT_ALL -q64 -O
cc_r -brtl -bdynamic -bmaxdata:0x80000000 -L/usr/local/lib -q64 -b64 -o
miniperl_nonshr miniperlmain.o \
    opmini.o
libperl_nonshr.a -lbind -lnsl -ldl -lld -lm -lcrypt -lpthreads -lc -lbsd
ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .flock
ld: 0711-345 Use the -bloadmap or -bnoquiet option to obtain more
information.
make: *** [miniperl_nonshr] Error 8

Any idea what is going on here?  I am building with threads, but building
without threads gives the same error.

I am using the IBM compiler.  Attempting to build Perl with GCC gives an
error "-b must be first" when it tries to build a test program.

I can post much more detailed information if you want it.  Google searches
have not resulted in any answers, only more questions.

Thanks.
