[tlbuild] TL2012 aix 4.3 build report

[Vladimir Volovich]

Hi!

I've built TL2012 on AIX 4.3, using IBM xlc compilers, just like in
previous years.

I had to apply some patches - see attached files.

1) aix-patch-build.diff - use $CONFIG_SHELL in top-level Build script
   [Karl objected against it, and I'm ok with this]

2) aix-patch-freetype2.diff - use $CONFIG_SHELL in freetype's builds/unix/detect.mk
   otherwise the build fails.

3) aix-patch-icu.diff - add const declarations, to fix compile problem.
   The cause and a way to fix is the same as discussed in
   http://tug.org/pipermail/tlbuild/2010q2/001541.html

4) aix-patch-poppler.diff - add const declarations, to fix compile problem.
   The cause and a way to fix is the same as discussed in
   http://tug.org/pipermail/tlbuild/2010q2/001541.html

5) aix-patch-mtx.diff - this is not a real fix, but a workaround against
   an improper way in which mtx declares its own prototypes for malloc and free.
   proper way is to use autoconf to test for presence of prototypes in
   header files.
   without a patch I was getting a compile error:

gmake[3]: Entering directory `/usr/local/vvv/src/source/Work/utils/mtx'

gmake[3]: *** [p2clib.o] Error 1
gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/vvv/src/source/Work/utils/mtx'

6) aix-patch-synctex.diff - fix for synctex. without a patch,
   synctex_parser.c, after preprocessing, contained fragments such as

struct _synctex_node {
    ;
        synctex_class_t class;
        synctex_info_t * implementation;
};

(SYNCTEX_USE_CHARINDEX is not defined, and SYNCTEX_DECLARE_CHARINDEX was
defined as empty macro).

xlc doesn't like the above constructs, and complained like this:

source='synctexdir/synctex_parser.c' object='synctex-synctex_parser.o' libtool=no \
        DEPDIR=.deps depmode=aix /bin/bash ../../../texk/web2c/../../build-aux/depcomp \

gmake[4]: *** [synctex-synctex_parser.o] Error 1
gmake[4]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/vvv/src/source/Work/texk/web2c'

So I've fixed it by removing a semicolon.

7) aix-patch-xpdf.diff - fix a compile problem:

source='../../../libs/xpdf/xpdf-3.03/xpdf/GlobalParams.cc' object='GlobalParams.o' libtool=no \
        DEPDIR=.deps depmode=aix /bin/bash ../../../libs/xpdf/../../build-aux/depcomp \

"../../../libs/xpdf/xpdf-3.03/xpdf/GlobalParams.cc", line 193.11: 1540-0274 (S) The name lookup for "strcasecmp" did not find a declaration.
gmake[5]: *** [GlobalParams.o] Error 1
gmake[5]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/vvv/src/source/Work/libs/xpdf'
