Re: AIX 6.1 install trouble.

Tom,

I'm now going to assume that you don't actually know anything about linkers
or shared libraries, nor about reading error messages to gain more detail
debugging.

The -Wl,-bnoquiet came from actually reading your error output and seeing
ld: 0711-345 Use the -bloadmap or -bnoquiet option to obtain more
information.
collect2: ld returned 8 exit status

Since you rolled your own libldap_r, I have zero idea which libraries it was
linked against.

Look through that gcc output and look for your ldap library.
You'll see a line like
(ld): lib /usr/local/lib/libldap_r.a

Now see what is in that .a file
ar t that_dot_a_file

Now extract the shared object from that .a file
ar x that_dot_a_file that_object_file

Now see what libraries that shared object was linked against.
ldd that_object_file

And you're going to see something vaguely like
         /usr/lib/libs.a(shr.o)
         /usr/lib/libpthread.a(shr_xpg5.o)
         /opt/freeware/lib/liblber.a(liblber-2.4.so.2)
         /opt/freeware/lib/libssl.a(libssl.so.0.9.8)
         /opt/freeware/lib/libcrypto.a(libcrypto.so.0.9.8)
         /unix
         /usr/lib/libcrypt.a(shr.o)
         /usr/lib/libc.a(shr.o)
         /usr/lib/libpthreads.a(shr_comm.o)
         /usr/lib/libc.a(shr_64.o)
         /usr/lib/libpthreads.a(shr_xpg5_64.o)
         /usr/lib/libcrypt.a(shr_64.o)

Of interest, libcrypto.a.  You don't have 'crypto' in your libs stanza in
setup.cfg (It's in the default one), so it would fail with the libldap_r.a
that I have on my system.

If you built cyrus-sasl and put it into /usr/local/lib, it'll later complain
due to a lack of sasl2 in the libs as well.
