>Description:
devel/binutils from pkgsrc-2010Q4 fails to build on aix 5.3 with gcc 4.4.4. Once I get it to build, there are install errors.
The build errors are all of the same "missing sentinel" type. Here's an example:
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.././binutils -I. -D_GNU_SOURCE -I. -I.././binutils -I../bfd -I.././binutils/../bfd -I.././binutils/../include -I.././binutils/../intl -I../intl -DLOCALEDIR="\"/jxr/share/locale\"" -Dbin_dummy_emulation=bin_aix5_emulation -I/jxr/gcc44/include -I/jxr/gcc44/lib/gcc/powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/4.4.4/include -I/usr/include -I/jxr/include -W -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes -Werror -O -I/jxr/gcc44/include -I/jxr/gcc44/lib/gcc/powerpc-ibm-aix5.3.0.0/4.4.4/include -I/usr/include -I/jxr/include -c -DAIX_WEAK_SUPPORT .././binutils/objdump.c

Once I fix the build errors, I get the following errors when I install:

>How-To-Repeat:
Build devel/binutils from pkgsrc-2010Q4 with gcc 4.4.4 on aix 5.3.
>Fix:
The "missing sentinal" error occurs in calls to concat that are terminated with NULL. Here's an example:
p->local_sym_name = concat ("-l", name, NULL);
This might only be a problem with newer versions of gcc. At any rate, the source files end concat calls in different ways besides just NULL, and one other way is with "(const char * ) 0". Below are patches that change the problem concat calls. Newer versions of binutils have already eliminated NULL terminated concat calls, so there's no need for me to send patches upstream. Also, gas/read.c already had a patched applied to it in patch-af. My patch incorporates that patch.

As for the install problem, I see this in the configure output:
checking for correct version of gmp.h... no
*** This configuration is not supported in the following subdirectories:
gprof
(Any other directories should still work fine.)
Since gprof doesn't get built, I get the install errors listed above. I don't know if the problem with gmp.h is just on my system, or if this is a problem on aix. If the problem is on aix and the installation process shouldn't try to install the gprof files, then the following patch to Makefile will prevent the install errors:

State-Changed-Why:
There were two problems in here; the fix for one got committed in 2017
and the other one was already "fixed in newer versions of binutils" in
2010 so is no longer relevant.
