You mean 4.3.0?  There are big differences between the 4.3.x versions.

Without a more specific bug report, I can't really help you much,
other than to say that there is only one known problem with g++ on AIX
4.3.3, which is related to static templated data, which this isn't.
So it may very well be fixed.

The following short program compiles and links OK under a relatively
recent g++:

----------
extern int foo(int);

struct foos { int (*foop)(int);  };
const struct foos food = { &foo };

int main()
{ return 0; }
