[Pw_forum] compile GIPAW on aix

[Giuseppe Mattioli]

Dear all
I'm trying to compile the XSPECTRA code (4.3.2 version) on a power/AIX machine (sp.sp6 at cineca.it) 
where everything else goes generally fine.
When the compiler tries to compile the GIPAW directory, it stops complaining something that seems 
likely to be an "AIX related" issue (make -C src make: Not a recognized flag: C) that I am not able 
to solve.

        cd install ; make  -f plugins_makefile gipaw
make: 1254-053 Command "$(dummy-variable)" expands to empty string.

        if test ! -d ../GIPAW; then  (gzip -dc ../archive/qe-gipaw-latest.tar.gz | (cd ../ ; 
tar -xvf -)) ;  (cd ../ ; ln -s qe-gipaw* GIPAW) ; fi 
        touch uncompress-gipaw
        cd ../GIPAW ;  ./configure --with-qe-source=/gpfs/scratch/userexternal/gmattiol/4.3.2
