Cannot build on LINUX PPC

Hi

I am running LINUX PPC (Yellow dog linux 2.1).  I have done a latest update 
from the CVS database and I am trying to build APR.

I keep getting the error with respect to not being to build anything in the 
atomic/unix directory.  I looked in the old message database and there was 
a mention to configure with --disabled-shared.  This did not help.

What am I doing wrong?

gcc, gdb, and vi.  Jeff keeps telling me I should learn emacs, but I'm a bass
player and we're notoriously slow.

Sorry for replying late (was at a conference this week).  Ok I went through 
and looked at everything again.  The problem was that some of the stuff I 
was trying to compile from another Open Source package conflicted.  No idea 
what really because I just ended up reformating.  I was playing around with 
GNOME and trying to get a development environment up and running.  With a 
fresh install of YDL 2.1 everything worked out fine.

Now here is another question.  What do all of you use as a development 
tool?  The reason I ask is that by having to use YDL there are not that 
many commercial IDE's available (basically none).

But thanks for the help...

Hi Christian.
can you also email what version of the kernel you are trying to build on
I tested the atomics on i386 and a alpha, and they seemed to work.
can you also email the output of uname  -m
we might have to exclude the that machine from using linux's inbuilt 
functions.

Hum. As Jeff said, could we have the error please?
I've just gotten done compiling APR on a stock Yellow Dog 2.1 install,
and everything works fine for me. However, I will say that the compile
was performed as part of an apache build.

What is the error?

Here is something to try:

make clean

change
  #define APR_FORCE_ATOMIC_GENERIC 0
in apr.h to 
  #define APR_FORCE_ATOMIC_GENERIC 1

make

does that make it better?
