Tom, That patch worked, as far as eliminating those duplicate symbol warnings. I have some dependency issues (libintl) that I have to resolve in order to test the build. Or you could build without nls in the first instance. Thanks, Andrew. I wasn't sure what was going on, because NLS is listed as an optional feature in configure. But './configure --disable-nls' did the trick. (Is there something wrong with the configure file, though?) Sorry for the belated response. I'm happy Andreas hopped on it. I was working on my next issue, which is 'make check' failing the stats test; I see my problem in src/test/regress/log/postmaster log: LOG: could not bind socket for statistics collector: Can't assign requested address LOG: disabling statistics collector for lack of working socket This seems to be due to a misconfiguration on this AIX box. 'localhost' is not resolving properly.

Also check that regression tests and contrib build/regression tests still work. works perfectly on AIX 4.3.3 with xlc. All regression tests pass, except horology that shows 7 extra -infinity rows. In contrib I tested btree_gist and dblink which also pass. There are a few places left in contrib with duplicate warnings, some because of -l pgport and -I:postgres.imp but the main build is now free of those warnings. Thank you for the work, please apply.
