I think this fixed it.
The compiler did not barf.

I have no idea. I will attach the configure logs.

To compile the code I have manually added the _USE_IRS.
Maybe we will need a fixup in the config script:

if aix*  then define _USE_IRS ...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I also needed to add: -fno-strict-aliasing

numbers.c:617: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break 
strict-aliasing rules
numbers.c:640: warning: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break 
strict-aliasing rules

I will attach all necessary logs.

The first tests passes all.
The second test have some errors (details seel attached log)...

At least the memory error is gone :-)

Info:

I changed numbe.c

#define SCM_COMPLEX_VALUE(z)                                    \
(SCM_COMPLEX_REAL (z) + _Complex_I * SCM_COMPLEX_IMAG (z))

==>

#define SCM_COMPLEX_VALUE(z)                                    \
(SCM_COMPLEX_REAL (z) + 1.0fi * SCM_COMPLEX_IMAG (z))

The _Complex_I and 1.0fi should evaluate to the same result:

1.0fi      0.000000, 1.000000
_Complex_I 0.000000, 1.000000
