Kannel on AIX

Hi,

I am trying to get Kannel 1.4.1 to compile and run on AIX 5.2 using gcc 4.0 and libxml2 2.6.23. To do so, I had to make two small changes to the source code:

This second change is questionable but indicates the problem: when compiling in 64 bit mode, AIX already defines int64.

I am fairly sure that B38400 can be assumed to be defined but you could extend the patch to check for lower baud rates.

I also tried building using the native AIX compiler which, in addition to the above changes, requires that all the C++-style comments be converted to C-style comments (there's probably a compiler switch that allows C++-style comments but by default they are rejected).

The build system assumes gcc (for the generation of include dependencies via the -MM option) which is unfortunate.
