Im trying to install the latest snapshot of the Hobbit client on AIX. I
installed gnu make from the ucla aixpdslib site along with gcc 4.0.2.
The configure worked fine and created the makefile to install the client
with config on the server side. I changed the Makefile.AIX file to use
gcc as it couldn't find cc and encountered the following errors. Im not
very familiar with AIX and haven't been able to find one of our people
who is yet so was hoping someone here would have some experience.

 
# /usr/local/bin/make

Hope someone can help.

I had the same problem. You need to edit the osdefs.h file so that socklen_t
is an unsigned long, which is how it is defined in sockets.h.
