Re: Choice: Error 27001 or 23101

Jacob, This may be related: I ran into a conflict with compiles due to an AIX include file that uses "loc_t" in a locale definition. Since we're not working with multiple locales, we got around the problem by adding "-D_H_LOCALEDEF" in the cc section of the /etc/xlc.cfg file.
