[zeromq-dev] How to build zeromq on AIX?

Which versions of AIX and XL C/C++ compiler do you use?
I just tried on our AIX 5.3 with XL C/C++ V12.1 and had much better
results: all the tests passed except test_abstract_ipc (I'll check this
later).

$ xlC -qversion
IBM XL C/C++ for AIX, V12.1 (5765-J02, 5725-C72)
Version: 12.01.0000.0000

$ oslevel
5.3.0.0


============================================================================
Testsuite summary for zeromq 4.0.3
============================================================================
# TOTAL: 43
# PASS:  42
# SKIP:  0
# XFAIL: 1
# FAIL:  0
# XPASS: 0
# ERROR: 0

I suggest open an issue at https://github.com/zeromq/libzmq/issues and
provide at least the following information:
 - AIX and compiler versions,
 - attach the "config.log"
 - provide backtrace from core

To get a backtrace on AIX (note that executable is actually
tests/.libs/lt-test_* and the core should be in tests/):

$ cd tests
$ dbx .libs/lt-test_abstract_ipc core

(dbx) where
pthread_kill(??, ??) at 0xd01250d4
_p_raise(??) at 0xd0124b44
raise.raise(??) at 0xd0368668
abort() at 0xd03dd690
__assert_c99(??, ??, ??, ??) at 0xd03e8894
main(), line 31 in "test_abstract_ipc.cpp"
