(The optimizer bug reported at this place in previous releases
has been worked around by a minimal code change.)
In addition, Gary Duzan has a hint for C++ users: to enable

errors about ptread_* functions, during compile or during
testing, try setting CC to a thread-safe (reentrant) compiler,
like "cc_r". For full C++ module support, set CC="xlC_r" (or
CC="xlC" without thread support).
HP-UX: Please read the file Misc/HPUX-NOTES for shared libraries.
When using threading, you may have to add -D_REENTRANT to the
