as others have said, 7.4 is really really old and completely at end of
life, and should certainly not be used for new projects.
I have had no problems building and running PostgreSQL 8.4.5 on AIX 5.3L
and 6.1, on Power 5 and 6 gear, using IBM XL C for AIX v11.1
to build 8.4, I first built zlib 1.2.5 and readline 6.1 as static
libraries, built in my compile user's $HOME/src/* tree.
my build environment is...
export
PATH=/usr/bin:/etc:/usr/sbin:/usr/ucb:/home/postgres/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/sbin
export CC=/usr/vacpp/bin/xlc
zlib build:
$ CFLAGS="-q64" AR="/usr/bin/ar -X64" ./configure --prefix=$HOME/src
--64 --static && gmake && gmake install
readline build:
$ CC=/usr/vacpp/bin/xlc CFLAGS="-q64 -I$HOME/src/include"
LDFLAGS="-L$HOME/src/lib" AR="/usr/bin/ar" ./configure
--prefix=$HOME/src && gmake && gmake install
then I built postgres via...
$ CC=/usr/vacpp/bin/xlc CFLAGS="-q64 -I$HOME/src/include -O2
-qarch=pwr5 -qtune=balanced" LDFLAGS="-L$HOME/src/lib" AR="/usr/bin/ar" .
/configure --prefix=/opt/pgsql84 && gmake && gmake test && sudo gmake
install
then, as the postgres user, I setup...
$ export PGDATA=/u10/pgsql/data
$ export
PATH=/usr/bin:/etc:/usr/sbin:/usr/ucb:/home/postgres/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/sbin:/opt/pgsql84/bin
(I have the above in the PG user's .profile, actually)
$ initdb -E UTF8
and it ran in at most a couple seconds on a Power 520.
