Thanks Michal for your response. We got it figured out. First we had to set the environment variables: $> export CFLAGS="-DSYSV -D_AIX -D_AIX53 -D_ALL_SOURCE -O2 –DOPENSSL_FIPS" $> export CC="gcc"
Then we ran the configure command with the following options: $> ./configure --prefix=<install_dir> --enable-fips
Then environment variable allows stunnel to compile correctly; we then followed that up with the make and the make install command and everything completed just fine. Thanks again.

Yes, it looks like FIPS is indeed enabled in your OpenSSL library. On the other hand it looks like FIPS support is *not* enabled in your
OpenSSL headers.
The corresponding code in fips.h is: #include < #ifndef OPENSSL_FIPS #error FIPS is disabled. #endif
See the output of stunnel ./configure script and look for SSL configuration. You'll find the directory that stunnel gets its OpenSSL headers and libraries from. Maybe you have more than one instance of OpenSSL installed, and stunnel finds not the one with FIPS enabled?
The best solution would be to use header files configured with FIPS support. Alternatively you could manually add: #define OPENSSL_FIPS to your opensslconf.h.
