Platform:       AIX 5.1
C Compiler:     xlc     ( IBM's "C for AIX" compiler)
C++ Compiler:   none

Configure command:

                CC=xlc  ./configure \
                --prefix=/usr/local/dms \
                        '--disable-cxx'    \
                        --disable-shared \
                        --enable-static

Note: --disable-cxx based upon this posting: http://www.asmail.be/msg0054883561.html

This does not appear to disable an attempt to build tif_stream.cxx.

Here is a summary following running the above configure:

                Libtiff is now configured for powerpc-ibm-aix5.1.0.0

                  Installation directory:            /usr/local/dms
                  C compiler:                        xlc -g
                  C++ compiler:                      g++
                  Enable runtime linker paths:       no

                 Support for internal codecs:
                  CCITT Group 3 & 4 algorithms:      yes
                  Macintosh PackBits algorithm:      yes
                  LZW algorithm:                     yes
                  ThunderScan 4-bit RLE algorithm:   yes
                  NeXT 2-bit RLE algorithm:          yes
                  LogLuv high dynamic range encoding:yes

                 Support for external codecs:
                  ZLIB support:                      no
                  Pixar log-format algorithm:        no
                  JPEG support:                      no
                  Old JPEG support:                  no

                  C++ support:                       yes

                  OpenGL support:                    no

Here is the end of running "make":
