int i;

In this code snipet, nest() is a nested function. I suppose you could also
call it a local function; here nest's scope (like the variable i) is only
valid within the main() function. The reason why I believe that AIX has
problems with nested functions is because GCC produces object code for that
nested function which the AIX linker does not like.
