shutdown error - could not load module libC.a

ENVIRONMENT

OS Level: AIX 4.3

PROBLEM

When customer shuts down the system, he gets the following errors:

0509-036 cannot load program /usr/opt/ifor_ls/os/aix/bin/I4cfg
         because of
0509-150 libC.a (shr.o) could not be loaded                                
0509-022 cant load module libC.a (shr.o)                                  
0509-026 system error  a file or directory in the pathname does not
         exists.

SOLUTION

The solution is to correct a bad link in /usr/lpp/xlC/lib. Follow these steps:

cd /usr/lpp/xlC/lib                                                        
ls -l libC.a

This should be a link to aix43/libC.a
If this is correct, please try a different solution.
If it is not, then do the following:

cd /usr/lpp/xlC/lib
rm libC.a
ln -s aix43/libC.a libC.a
ls -l libC.a
