Julien,
	Thank you so much for giving me a working data point. It turns out that 
the problem was that the compiler for inn/openssl/perl needs to be 
exactly the same. In this case perl was compiled with cc(AIX supplied), 
openssl(built) was compiled with cc_r, and inn-2.4.5(built) was compiled 
with cc_r. So two out of three was bad! So I rebuilt perl with cc_r and 
guess what? No error!

AIX 5.3 ML8
vac.C 8.0.0.18
openssl 0.9.8i
perl 5.10.0

Thanks so much,
Jonathan
