Hello colleagues,
I have previously built Apache Web Server 2.4.56 with Openssl 1.1.1t on AIX 7.1 using gcc version 6.3.0.

Currently we are pushed to stop using gcc compiler on AIX due to several reasons.
I have a licensed xlC compiler version: 16.1.0
I currently reached the stage of "make" and facing the following errors using xlC compiler:
--------------
"util.c", line 3201.53: 1506-277 (S) Syntax error: possible missing ';' or ','?
"util.c", line 3204.1: 1506-277 (S) Syntax error: possible missing ';' or ','?

make: *** [/tmp/build_apache_24/httpd-2.4.56/build/rules.mk:75: all-recursive] Error 1
======================================
I suspect the issue is with the xlC compiler.
Did anyone have any experience with this?
Thank you

Your first compiler error for util.c thows up the following IBM support page - https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/ccn3277-syntax-error-possible-missing-or. It might be worth playing with the compiler NOMARGINS and NOSEQ options to see if this has any effect.

Years ago I was tasked to build Apache with an old licensed copy of an IBM compiler for AIX, and struggled with its vagaries, to the point where I challenged why we couldn't just use gcc, as a globally accepted free software compiler under the GNU General Public License. The cost implications won out in the end; you might want to push back using a similar argument.
