Building on AIX

[Steve Poole]

hi guys.   The build instructions from Volker seem to work ok on my AIX   machine up to a point.

Using V11 of the XLC compiler I hit a compiler bug.   When I move to the latest V12 version I get this below in the build log..

Seems to be a pretty hard failure -  any advice?

Cheers Steve
