           Summary: -SNAP-20020410 fails to compile under AIX 4.3.3
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: -current
          Platform: PPC
        OS/Version: AIX
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Build system
        AssignedTo: openssh-unix-dev at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: dmanton at emea.att.com


A simple ./configure; make using IBM VisualAge C++ 5 under AIX 4.3.3 ML9 returns:

        xlC -O2 -
qlanglvl=extended -I. -I.  -I/usr/local/include -DSSHDIR=\"/usr/local/etc\"  -
D_PATH_SSH_PROGRAM=\"/usr/local/bin/ssh\"  -
D_PATH_SSH_ASKPASS_DEFAULT=\"/usr/local/libexec/ssh-askpass\"  -
D_PATH_SFTP_SERVER=\"/usr/local/libexec/sftp-server\"  -D_PATH_SSH_PIDDIR=\"/var/run\"  -
DSSH_RAND_HELPER=\"/usr/local/libexec/ssh-rand-helper\" -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -c 
monitor_fdpass.c
"monitor_fdpass.c", line 43.18: 1506-195 (S) Integral constant 
expression with a value greater than zero is required.
"monitor_fdpass.c", line 87.18: 1506-
195 (S) Integral constant expression with a value greater than zero is required.
make: 1254-004 
The error code from the last command is 1.

This appears to be a problem with the line:

        char 
tmp[CMSG_SPACE(sizeof(int))];

It would seem that the IBM compiler does not like array 
declarations that need to be computed in this way.  Hard-coding 16 in place of 
CMSG_SPACE(sizeof(int)) allows compilation to succeed.

Can someone help me to solve this 
problem?
