Hi, Joel Thanks for looking into this and for considering some sort of work-around. I'm not sure what a "standard" location is on AIX. I was using the Bull Freeware installation of Python in /opt/freeware. Was the Python installation found and recognized on your AIX system? Until some of my more recent changes, GDB configure did not consider the installation correct to try to build the GDB feature. AIX, unfortunately, is very delicate and picky about header inclusion order and feature macros. Thanks, David
