memory functions crashing in AIX
Hi All,
I'm facing the following issue with my shared libraries in 64 bit AIX.
Memory related calls such as memset, memcpy, malloc etc are failing miserably.
there is something wrong with stack/memory which i can't guess.
i've used the following flags to build my libraray:
ld -G -bexpfull -bnoentry -bnogc -o <shared library name> <object files>
and the follwong option to compile the c files
gcc -maix64 -c -shared -fPIC .
someone please help me out
thanks

sdl-config
sdl-config(1) General Commands Manual sdl-config(1)
NAME
sdl-config - script to get information about the installed version of SDL
SYNOPSIS
sdl-config [ --prefix= DIR] [ --exec-prefix= DIR] [ --version ] [ --libs | --library-libs | --plugin-libs ] [ --cflags ]
DESCRIPTION
sdl-config is a tool that is used to configure and determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link pro-
grams, libraries, and plugins that use SDL. It is also used internally by the m4 macros that are included with SDL.
OPTIONS
--cflags
Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program or library that uses SDL.
--exec-prefix=DIR
If specified, use DIR instead of the installation exec prefix that SDL was build with when computing the output for the --cflags,
--libs, --library-libs, and --plugin-libs options. This option must be specified before any of the --cflags, --libs, --library-
libs, and --plugin-libs options.
--libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a program that uses SDL.
--static-libs
Print the linker flags that are necessary to statically link a program that uses SDL.
--library-libs
Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a library that uses SDL. (This excludes any static objects required for linking,
since these must be linked only by executable programs.)
--plugin-libs
Print the linker flags that are necessary to link an SDL-using object that is to be accessed via dlopen(3). This may include static
objects with PIC symbol information. This option should not be used for ordinary shared libraries or standalone applications.
--prefix=DIR
If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that SDL was built with when computing the output for the --cflags,
--libs, --library-libs, and --plugin-libs options. This option is also used for the exec prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified.
This option must be specified before any of the --cflags, --libs, --library-libs, and --plugin-libs options.
--version
Prints the currently installed version of SDL on standard output.
EXAMPLES
gcc -o main.o $(sdl-config --cflags) main.c
is how you might use sdl-config to compile a C source file for an executable program.
gcc -o my_app $(sdl-config --libs) main.o util.o
is how you might use sdl-config to link compiled objects into an executable program.
gcc -o libSDL_nifty-1.2.so.0.0.1 $(sdl --library-libs) read.o write.o munge.o
is how you might use sdl-config to link compiled objects into a shared library.
gcc -o libnifty_xmms.so $(sdl --plugin-libs) stream.o blit.o deinterlace.o
is how you might use sdl-config to link compiled objects into a plugin for use by another program.
