Greetings,

We have downloaded v3.6.1 to our AIX 5.2 machine. The ./configure command seems to encounter some problems and the subsequent "make" commands fail miserably. Below is the first few lines of config.log:

+ . ./config.site
+ cat dummy.c
main(int argc, char* argv) { exit(0); }
+ cat xgnu.c
#ifdef __GNUC__
yes;
#endif
+ egrep yes
+ gcc -E xgnu.c
+ 2>& 5
yes;
+ gcc -o dummy dummy.c
+ /usr/local/bin/gcc -g -c dummy.c
+ make -f confMakefile t
         /usr/local/bin/gcc  t.c
t.c:1: warning: conflicting types for built-in function `cos'
ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .cos
ld: 0711-345 Use the -bloadmap or -bnoquiet option to obtain more information.
collect2: ld returned 8 exit status
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 1.

Stop.
+ make -f confMakefile t

Are there any hoops to jump through to get this installed on AIX 5.2? We are trying to get ImageMagick to work with TIFF files on this system. Thanks for your help.

really correct and change is yourself.
