Problem to build DBD Informix with AIX 5.3 and IDS 7.31.UD1

Hi, everybody.
I am trying to compile DBD Informix 2005.01 for my
Informix environment but I am facing some errors:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# sudo perl Makefile.PL
*** ExtUtils::AutoInstall version 0.56

Configuring IBM Informix Database Driver for Perl DBI Version 2005.01
(2005-03-14) (aka DBD::Informix)
You are using DBI version 1.48 and Perl version 5.008007
Remember to actually read the README file!

Perl: perl v5.008007 aix-64int dl_aix.xs
System: aix brcscg 3 5 00ce711e4c00
Using INFORMIXDIR=/informix/v731ud1x5 and ESQL/C compiler esql
Using INFORMIX-ESQL Version 9.40.UC2 from /informix/v731ud1x5

Please upgrade to a more recent version of ClientSDK.
DBD::Informix will probably work, but that is not guaranteed.

Beware: DBD::Informix is not yet aware of all the new IUS data types.

Assert macro will be disabled!
