You really need to take questions about compiling to the -general list. I've put a Reply-To to that list, and have moved this discussion there. Also, it's really not a good idea to send emails to individuals whose addresses you've pulled from the lists. To begin with, what gcc version are you using? Also, I see you're using the IBM "make". Don't do that. You need to use gmake. This instruction is in the documentation. I think you really need to read the docs.
