I am trying to compile TeX 3.1 on an IBM RS/6000 running AIX 3.2.
I get the following error:

        cd web2c; \
                  make SITEDIR=".." CC="xlc" OPT="-g "  SHELL="/bin/sh"
LDFLAGS="" wlibs="" YACC="yacc" LEX="lex" LEXLIB="-ll" all
        xlc -g  -I.. -I../common -c web2cy.c
"../common/common.h", line 20.0: 1506-041 (S) Parameter list cannot contain
fewer parameters than required by macro definition.
The error code from the last failed command is 1.

Make Quitting.
The error code from the last failed command is 2.

Make Quitting.

The same thing happens if I use cc instead of xlc.  I defined ANSI
and AIX in site.h.  I also defined BSD because without it I was
getting an error about not being able to redefine index.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
