	As the error messages state, you need to have a working C compiler
in order to build GCC.  If you do not have any C compiler available on
your AIX installation, I would suggest that you use one of the binary
distributions available from third parties:

	Note that you need to have the AIX development environment
filesets (assembler, linker, header files, libraries, etc.) installed on
your system in order to use the binary distribution of GCC.  Those
filesets do not require an additional license.
