Here's an excerpt from ext/socket/mkmf.log: "gcc -o conftest -I/usr/local/lib/ruby/1.8/powerpc-aix5.2.0.0 -I/usr/local/lib/r uby/1.8/powerpc-aix5.2.0.0 -I/usr/include -g -O2 conftest.c -L"/usr/local/lib" -brtl -eInit_$(TARGET) -bI:/usr/src/ruby-1.8.1/ext/socket/ruby.imp -bM:SRE -T 512 -H512 -lc -liconv -lruby-static -lnsl -ldl -lcrypt -lm -lc" sh: TARGET: not found. gcc: `-b' must come at the start of the command line I'm not sure how these commands are being built, so I don't know how to move the -b option.
