    I found a problem similar to this on a MySQL compile. The problem was
    that during the compile a file was suppose to be copied to a certain
    location, which it was, the next step then removed it for some reason,
    and the third step tried to access the file that was removed. This
    resulted in the problem you described. I got around this in a very crude
    manner. I found the actual location of the original file, opened up
    another session, wrote a copy command and re-ran the compile. In between
    the compile script removing it and then trying to access it, I hit enter
    in the other window so the file was immediately copied and the compile
    continued with no errors.

    HTH,

    Subject: gcc problem on AIX 5.2

    I'm trying to build Ruby on AIX 5.2 using gcc 3.3.3. For some reason
    the socket library isn't building. It gets skipped with errors like
    this:

    "gcc -brtl -bI:/usr/src/ruby-1.8.1/ruby.imp -T512 -H512 -oconftest
    -I/usr/src/ruby-1.8.1 -I/usr/src/ruby-1.8.1 -g -O2 conftest.c
    -L"/usr/src/ruby-1.8.1" -L"/usr/local/lib" -lruby-static -lnsl -ldl
    -lcrypt -lm -lc"
    gcc: couldn't run `I:/usr/src/ruby-1.8.1/ruby.imp-gcc-3.3.3': No such
    file or directory

    Ideas? I'm definitely over my head here.
