Bug #52690 for Set-Object: Set Object does not build on AIX

I'm hoping that I'm not just a noob asking about this, but I've been unable to get Set::Object installed on AIX and using IBMs xlc compiler. I believe its Aix version 5.3 The copyright notice on the man page for xlc claims its Enterprise Edition V7.0 Here's the error message I'm getting, and thanks for advance in considering this problem.
