On AIX 4.3.2 with the vac compiler, I was able to build Ruby OK. 

The only problem with the xlc compiler build (on the same level of
AIX) that I encountered was due to being run on a machine without all
the X11 development stuff installed, causing the compile of the Tcl/Tk
ext stuff to fail due to a missing X11 .h file, as one might
reasonably expect. In any case, I didn't see any indication of
previously mentioned problems. (On the other hand, I don't have any
idea how far along in the build they appeared.) 

However, in both cases, I did see these warnings:
