Hi,

(1) gcc3-c++ still will NOT build. It keeps re-checking the
    configuration ad infinitum. For this reason I have...

    USE_NATIVE_GCC=yes
    CC=gcc
    CXX=g++

-> you HAVE to use CONFIG_SHELL=bash for gcc >2.9 to successfully
build on AIX. there's a few threads in comp.unix.aix on this, but the
CONFIG_SHELL
setting is the culprit. I don't know if exporting / putting into
mk.conf is enough.

Someone else please fill in on that. :)


I used to run pkgsrc on 5.2 once, but at some point broke it and never
got it fixed.
For testing, look if the linker picks up things in /usr/pkg/lib (i.e.
zlib and ssl)
by building i.e apache2.
