[Arsperl-users] Compiling ARS perl on AIX

[White, L. <lin...@ed...>]

I'm having issues compiling ARSperl on AIX Version 5.  I can
successfully create the makefile, but the compile chokes with an error
from ld.

$ make
cp ARSarerrno-h.pm blib/lib/ARSarerrno-h.pm
cp ARSnparm.pm blib/lib/ARSnparm.pm
cp artypes.ph blib/lib/artypes.ph
cp _h2ph_pre.ph blib/lib/_h2ph_pre.ph
