[Bug bootstrap/25119] New: bootstrap failure on AIX 5.3

[fxcoudert at gcc dot gnu dot org]

I have a 64bit GMP and want to bootstrap gcc with:

export CONFIG_SHELL=/path/to/bash
AR="ar -X64" CFLAGS="-maix64 -mminimal-toc"
/tmp/gfortran-20051127/gcc/configure --enable-languages=c,fortran
--with-gmp=/tmp/gfortran-20051127/gfortran_libs

but this fails to bootstrap with:

ar rc ./libiberty.a \
  ./regex.o ./cplus-dem.o ./cp-demangle.o ./md5.o ./alloca.o ./argv.o
./choose-temp.o ./concat.o ./cp-demint.o ./dyn-string.o ./fdmatch.o ./fibheap.o
./floatformat.o ./fnmatch.o ./fopen_unlocked.o ./getopt.o ./getopt1.o
./getpwd.o ./getruntime.o ./hashtab.o ./hex.o ./lbasename.o ./lrealpath.o
./make-relative-prefix.o ./make-temp-file.o ./objalloc.o ./obstack.o
./partition.o ./pexecute.o ./physmem.o ./pex-common.o ./pex-one.o ./pex-unix.o
./safe-ctype.o ./sort.o ./spaces.o ./splay-tree.o ./strerror.o ./strsignal.o
./ternary.o ./unlink-if-ordinary.o ./xatexit.o ./xexit.o ./xmalloc.o
./xmemdup.o ./xstrdup.o ./xstrerror.o ./xstrndup.o  ./asprintf.o ./mempcpy.o
./mkstemps.o ./strverscmp.o ./vasprintf.o
ar: 0707-126 ./regex.o is not valid with the current object file mode.
        Use the -X option to specify the desired object mode.
gmake[1]: *** [libiberty.a] Error 53
gmake[1]: Leaving directory
`/tmp/gfortran-20051127/ibin/build-powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/libiberty'

So it looks like my AR environement variable is not recognized, although the
output of configure is:

checking for bison... bison
checking for bison... bison -y
checking for gm4... no
checking for gnum4... no
checking for m4... m4

Note that it's checking twice for powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0-ar, and doesn't find
it the same way the second time.
