Installation on AIX 5.1

Installation on AIX 5.1

I had a couple of issues compiling directory libguile during
installation on AIX 5.1. The Guile version was 1.6.4.

Variable $^ was not recognized by AIX Make utility. Had to replace $^
with actual file name version.h.in in libguile/Makefile.

Needed to change libguile/list.c to use header file stdarg.h. For some
reason the preprocessor statement '#ifdef __STDC__' fails and varargs.h
is included instead of stdarg.h. This causes the compile to fail with
the following message: "list.c", line 118.3: 1506-045 (S) Undeclared
identifier va_alist.

After making these changes I was able to produce the executable
libguile/guile.

Thanks,

Keith Crane

Thanks, I made that change.

Thanks.  Yes, rumour has it all AIX compilers are ansi but don't
always define __STDC__.  I see there's no actual support for varargs.h
style in the way the va stuff is used.  I'll change it to stdarg.h
unconditionally.
