In order to proceed with this issue, please execute the following steps:

  1. run ./configure with whatever options you have;
  2. in ./configure output, note "compiler flags" line;
  3. create a separate directory;
  4. copy include/config.h to that directory;
  5. copy include/sysinc.h to that directory;
  6. create file test.c with the following content: 
    #include "sysinc.h"

int	main()
{
	return 0;
}
  7. run "gcc $COMPILER_FLAGS -c test.c", where $COMPILER_FLAGS is what you noted in the output of ./configure;
  8. if compilation is successful, then something is wrong with my instructions, so please say so;
  9. if compilation is not successful, run "gcc $COMPILER_FLAGS -E test.c > test-preprocessed.c" to obtain preprocessed sources;
  10. run "gcc -c test-preprocessed.c" to try to compile preprocessed source;
  11. attach zipped directory and compiler output from the last step.

Also, could you please execute the following steps in a new directory:

  1. create file simple.c with the following content: 
    #include <netdb.h>
#include <libperfstat.h>

int	main()
{
	return 0;
}
  2. run "gcc $COMPILER_FLAGS -c simple.c";
  3. if compilation is not successful, then apparently you have a broken installation;
  4. if compilation is successful, run "gcc $COMPILER_FLAGS -E simple.c > simple-preprocessed.c";
  5. attach "simple-preprocessed.c".
Comment by Aleksandrs Saveljevs [ 2014 Apr 22 ]

Also, could you please tell us why compiler takes includes from locations like "/opt/freeware/lib/gcc/powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/4.2.0/include/stdio.h"? Here, "powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0" is suspicious, considering that this issue is about AIX 7.1.

Comment by Aleksandrs Saveljevs [ 2014 Apr 22 ]

It seems to me that if such a simple file including only <netdb.h> and <libperfstat.h> does not compile, then that probably suggests that system headers are not in order.
