build issue on aix, library libcom_err not found

[peter sands]

Hello,
I've downloaded openssh 5.3 p1. and building it with (gssapi) kerberos
5.

I am getting an error on the make, which I cannot resolve by myself.
It complains about
a missing libcom_err library not found. Well I do not have this on my
system. I have even downloaded the
kerberos toolkit and the library is not their either. Can somebody
give me some advise on this please as I am a bit lost, thanks.

platform: aix 5.3
LIBPATH: /usr/lib:/usr/include:/usr/local/lib:/usr/include/gssapi

Using the following config parameters:
./configure --without-zlib-version-check --with-kerberos5=/usr/krb5
--without-openssl-header-check --with-ssl-dir=/usr/local/ssl prefix=/
opt/openssh

make returns....

thanks
