RE: AIX patch for libtool.m4

[Boehne, Robert]

Jim,

According to:
  http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/esdd/pdfs/aix_ll.pdf

One should create an AIX style library with -qmkshrobj and
create a SYSV-compat library with -G.  The two options should
not be used together.  All of the AIX support code in Libtool
has been written or looked over by IBM engineers in Austin, so
I'm very confident that Libtool is building these libraries correctly.

Thanks,

Robert Boehne

Subject: AIX patch for libtool.m4


Hi,

The following patch for AIX 5 and xlC 6.0 causes shared libraries to be 
built correctly with xlC when LDFLAGS=-brtl is in the environment.  I 
think that this probably ought to be the default rather than the 
exception.  If you are interested I can look into changing things so 
that it is.


diff -r1.314.2.2 libtool.m4
2806c2806
<         shared_flag='${wl}-G'
---
 >        shared_flag='${wl}-G -qmkshrobj'
