I am experiencing the above problem.
The problematic portion of compile
is at the end

What is the remedy/solution?

Thanks,
Farid

WCOREDUMP isn't definded under any version of AIX I've looked at, but it
ought to be defined as follows:

#ifndef WCOREDUMP
#define WCOREDUMP(x) ((x) & 0x80)
#endif

Add that to something included by dig.c (for instance
src/port/aix4/include/port_after.h )

Quite obvious, isn't it? :)
