19 For information on compilers on older versions of AIX, see L</Compiling
20 Perl 5 on older AIX versions up to 4.3.3>.
22 When compiling Perl, you must use an ANSI C compiler. AIX does not ship
23 an ANSI compliant C compiler with AIX by default, but binary builds of
24 gcc for AIX are widely available. A version of gcc is also included in
25 the AIX Toolbox which is shipped with AIX.
38 As of writing (2010-09) only the I<IBM XL C for AIX> or I<IBM XL C/C++
39 for AIX> compiler is supported by IBM on AIX 5L/6.1/7.1.
45 The XL C for AIX is integrated in the XL C/C++ for AIX compiler and
53 from IBM (April 2009 PTF for XL C/C++ Enterprise Edition for AIX, V9.0).

134 on AIX 7.1) for some AIX system scripts. If you switch the links in
135 /usr/bin from the AIX system Perl (/usr/opt/perl5) to the newly build
136 Perl then you get the same features as with the IBM AIX system Perl if

266 When compiling Perl, you must use an ANSI C compiler. AIX does not ship
267 an ANSI compliant C-compiler with AIX by default, but binary builds of

270 At the moment of writing, AIX supports two different native C compilers,

506 In AIX 4.2 Perl extensions that use C++ functions that use statics
508 In newer AIX releases this has been solved by linking Perl with
509 the libC_r library, but unfortunately in AIX 4.2 the said library
512 therefore in AIX 4.2 Perl is not linked against the libC_r.
