I checked this build again and I think I have found the problem.
The build tools (libtool/autoconf/config.guess) used by guile 1.6.8 do 
not support AIX 6.1
So the build of the shared libraries fail.

I have patched the configure scripts and I have refreshed libtool / 
config.guess.
Now I have a different problem:

FAIL: check-guile
===================
1 of 1 tests failed
===================

If the build tools (config.guess, libtool, autoconf) are updated to 
newer version than the shared library problem is gone.
I have used the latest config.guess + libtool-1.5-branch and I have 
patched the two configure scripts to support AIX 6.1.

I have attached my build logs to this mail.

Any ideas ??

Bye
 Rainer
