bmake hangs on unit tests in AIX

[Louis Guillaume <louis%zabrico.com@localhost>]

Hi All,

I recently attempted to update a year-old AIX 5.3 system with pkgsrc. 
Below are the details on what I'm running into with bmake. Any help on 
this would be great. Thanks,

Louis




First the environment:

 AIX 5.3 - os level 5300-10-01-0921
 powerpc hardware (p-series)
 xlC compiler (version 9)
 pkgsrc-2010Q2
 this machine was bootstrapped for pkgsrc probably around Fall of 2008.
 mk.conf is at the end of this message.



bmake is hanging on the unit tests. If I go into the work directory and 
run the tests manually I can see where it hangs:
