I'm trying to build R 2.4.0 on an IBM P5-570 that's running
AIX 5.3. I'm using xlc 7.0, xlc++ 7.0 and xlf 9.1 in 32 bit
mode (OBJECT_MODE is 32 in the build environment).
The source is the patched version of 2.4.0, downloaded yesterday.
Configure options were --prefix, --srcdir, --x-includes, --x-libraries,
and --without-readline. Compiler flags were -O2.
The make step fails with a segfault when it's building package
grDevices. Here's the last part of the make output:

Is this a known problem and is there a known workaround? Any
feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks,
