CFLAGS='-O -qstrict'
F77=xlf_r
FFLAGS='-O -qstrict'
SHLIB_LDFLAGS='-G'
DYLIB_LDFLAGS='-G'

Complilation error in src/main/printutils.c:
"printutils.c", line 582.7: 1506-1352 (S) "va_start" may not appear in a
function without a variable argument list.
"printutils.c", line 591.5: 1506-277 (S) Syntax error: possible missing
';' or ','?

Solution:
add variable argument list in Rvprintf(const char *format, va_list arg, ...)
add ';' in line 591
