Building on AIX 4

I am having some difficulties building libgcrypt 1.1.11 under
AIX 4. First, the configure script sets HAVE_GETHRTIME to 1
which seems to be wrong. The compile was dying in random.c.
I reset that to zero and now the build has problems later in the build. It
tries to generate symbols with nm and gets numerous errors like the
following:

nm: ../cipher/.libs/libcipher.al[sha1.lo]: 0654-203 Specify an XCOFF object
module

Then, while linking, it gets:

cc: 1501-218 file .libs/libgcrypt.lax/libcipher.al/cipher.lo contains an
incorre
ct file suffix
cc: 1501-218 file .libs/libgcrypt.lax/libcipher.al/pubkey.lo contains an
incorre
ct file suffix
cc: 1501-218 file .libs/libgcrypt.lax/libcipher.al/md.lo contains an
incorrect f
ile suffix

.......

BTW, what are .lo files (they seem to be present rather than the typical .o
files)?

Any clues? Thanks.
