Comment 1

[The Written Word]

Attachment: patch to #include <new> in jscntxt.h

Surprisingly just #include <new> gets us past this error on AIX 5.3 with xlC Version: 08.00.0000.0024

[Uli Link (:ul-mcamafia)]

this fix makes AIX 5.1 with IBM XLC/C++ 8.0.0.15 happy. Not needed with IBM XLC/C++ 9.0 or newer which is available on AIX 5.2.
Closing this bug WORKSFORME
