Has anyone been able to compile rcs5.5 on an IBM RS/6000?

  popular question lately...

  yes, no problem.  run "make CC=bsdcc".  see /usr/lpp/bos/bsdport for
  details on how to create the bsdcc compiler.

I was just at the IBM AIX porting centre last week and had to port
rcs to make sure our source tree kept in sync.  It was fairly easy
once I relized that their compiler doesn't accept the -S flag, which 
caused the conf.sh script to get confused.  I changed every instance
of -S with -c, which allowed conf.sh to do its thing and aside from
fixing some of the prototypes in rcsbase.h, everything went smoothly
after that.
