With the right compiler and flags specified, 'make world'
ran with only two hiccups:
I had to comment out this line:
typedef schar int8 ;
of texk/web2c/odvicopy.c
texk/web2c/dvicopy.c
because int8 is already typedef'ed to a signed char in
/usr/include/sys/inttypes.h
(Overall, I would call that a beautiful build ... )
latex appears to work. I can latex a document and display it with
an old version of xdvi.
xdvi doesn't work. mf spins endlessly, consuming most of the processor.
This is the output I get when trying using xdvi:

I examined the mailing list archive and I don't see anyone else having
similar problems.
I've tried the ljfour and qms modes.
The above output was when I tried to 'view a testfile' in texconfig.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Configure identified my system as: rs6000-ibm-aix4.3.3.0
teTeX-src-1.0.7
teTeX-texmf-1.0.2
I'm using:
IBM VisualAge C++ Professional for AIX, Version 5.0
on an RS/6000 with AIX 4.3.3
My compile flags were set thus:
setenv CC xlC
setenv CFLAGS '-O -qsrcmsg -w -qmaxmem=16384 -qalias=noansi -qlanglvl=extended'
setenv CXX xlC
setenv CXXFLAGS '-O -qsrcmsg -w -qmaxmem=16384 -qalias=noansi -qlanglvl=extended '
I also tried previously to compile with
IBM C and C++ Compilers, Version 3.6.6
and mf would die with a memory allocation failure. (another thing about
that compile was my using CC=cc which would fail to link things with C++
code correctly--so I did it manually by specifying xlC in otherwise the
same command--that's why I set CC=xlC for my latest run)
