+0706-781 ERROR: TOC overflow. TOC size: 647000  Max size: 65536
+collect2: ld returned 12 exit status

Since I don't have an AIX system I'm not going to mention any 'solution'
directly. But I will mention, that on a Lynx OS compile of an Xserver,
I had the experience that when I enabled debugging info, with the
'-g' option, that the linker ran out of data space. Fortunately
I was able to overcome this by changing the process data memory limit
to somthing large enought to get the link done.

With out debug info, the file was some 4 M, (actual code was bout 1.5
M). With debug info, the file is some 24 M, (and again actual code
is about 1.5...).
