Bug description

Hi there,

ocamlopt-compiled programs (including ocamlopt.opt itself) always dump
core on my AIX 4.3.2 box. I see that my trusty old installation
O'Caml 2.02 still works, but that's of limited values these days ...

I'm not sure what information I should provide. The backtrace isn't
very helpful ...

The only AIX machine I have access to runs AIX 4.3.3, and doesn't
allow me to do a full test of OCaml (i.e. they nuked my home dir,
forcing me to work in /tmp, which is too small to accommodate a full
make opt.opt :-), but I have been able to build ocamlopt and run our
mini test suite without problems. The C parts of the system were
compiled with gcc 2.95.

So, bascially, there's not much that I can do. While the Power/MacOSX
port of OCaml is well maintained, the Power/AIX port is one of those
ports that we will have to deprecate eventually, by lack of available
hardware...

Sorry about that,
