What warnings did you get?  Perhaps the compiler is warning of stuff
that's incorrect....

Odd - perhaps this is due to some AIX oddity; I have the impression
their "archive" libraries are actually treated like shared libraries,
rather than as traditional UNIX-style archive libraries.

Did it fail immediately, or did it fail when you tried to do something
other than just running it?

Do you have a debugger available, so that you can get a stack trace?
