Hooray! Success! GCC3 compiled the whole goddamn thing without a glitch,
and it also seems to work flawlessly (including the tests). And to make
this day even more memorable, it works on both POWER and PowerPC
architectures =)

Did you use DLLDFLAGS=-shared or it worked OOTB?

Could you give exact configure invocation you used?

Yes, that was the only trick I used..

..but it works also without it, OOTB.

You mean, it even correctly finds boolcodes & friends?

Anyway, after reading AIX ld docs I am not happy with how we are doing it.
We do not actually build shared libraries (meaning shareable code) so every
zsh instance gets own copy of every loaded module.

Timo, could you do me a favour, update CVS and try the following patch. Just
go into zsh dir and do

cvs up -dP

then apply the patch. This should produce better code ... I hope.

Or should we just leave it as is?

Actually no... both broken in that respect.

So, you did use LIBS=-ltermcap?

Erm ... my patch was not aimed at it, so it was not expected to change.

You need Yodl to build docs if you compile off CVS.

I guess, I apply this patch. So, the remaining problem is boolcodes.
Somewhat easy "fix" is to prefer termcap on AIX until somebody comes up with
better solution. Comments?

No, not with gcc. It didn't seem to bother much though...
