Issues compiling with large file support

[pruebauno]

Hello all,
I am having issues compiling Python with large file support. I tried
forcing the configure script to add it but then it bombs in the make
process. Any help will be appreciated.

Information:
Architecture:
PowerPc on AIX version 5

Compiler:
VisualAge C++ Professional / C for AIX Compiler, Version 6

Python version:
Python 2.4.1

Error Message:
cc_r -c -DNDEBUG -g -O2 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64
-I
.. -I./Include -DPy_BUILD_CORE -o Objects/fileobject.o
