Summary: AIX: configure ignores $CC; problems with C++ style comments
Initial Comment:
CC=xlc_r ./configure does not work on AIX-5.1, because configure
unconditionally sets $CC to "cc_r":
case $ac_sys_system in
AIX*) CC=cc_r
without_gcc=;;
It would be better to leave $CC and just add "-qthreaded" to $CFLAGS.
Furthermore, much of the C source code of Python uses C++ /C99 comments. This
is an error with the standard AIX compiler. Please add the compiler flag
"-qcpluscmt".
An alternative would be to use a default of "xlc_r" for CC on AIX. This calls
the compiler in a mode that both accepts C++ comments and generates reentrant
code.
Regards,
Johannes

There shouldn't be any C++ comments in the Python code. If there are, it
is a mistake. I did see some get removed recently. Could you let me know
where you see the C++ comments?
