Trouble compiling nginx on AIX 5.3

Server NGINX
1

I am having issues getting nginx v1.2.6 compiled on AIX 5.3. This is
the first time I have tried on AIX. I am using the configure line:

./configure --without-http_rewrite_module --without-http_gzip_module
–with-http_ssl_module --with-zlib=/usr/lib/

It gets so far in compiling then stops at this error:

    gcc -c -pipe  -O -W -Wall -Wpointer-arith

-Wno-unused-parameter -Werror -g -I src/core -I src/event -I
src/event/modules -I src/os/unix -I objs -o

Stop.

Stop.

I also tried V1.2.4 and got the same results but a slightly different
line number. Any help?

We don’t have an access to the system with AIX 5.3. The build works OK
on 7.1 with gcc 4.6.0 though.

Line numbers suggests there is a problem with system headers and
your compiler - it complains about macros like WTERMSIG(). If you
are brave enough to assume these warnings are harmless, you may
tro using

./configure --with-cc-opt=“-Wno-error”

to compile nginx despite of the warnings.
