The AIX assembler. Used the binutils 2.16 assembler (gnu as) next time ;(

I'd like to, did there is an AIX GCC guru around ?

The native as and ld are recommended for bootstrapping on AIX 4 and
required for bootstrapping on AIX 5L. The GNU Assembler reports that
it supports WEAK symbols on AIX 4, which causes GCC to try to utilize
weak symbol functionality although it is not supported. The GNU
Assembler and Linker do not support AIX 5L sufficiently to bootstrap
GCC. The native AIX tools do interoperate with GCC.

If I understand it well, I should use AIX AS and AIX LD to build GCC ?
