Trouble with an installation on AIX

This time I have got quite a simple task - to install Oracle database binaries on a host with AIX. Work as usual.
But after copying files the installer process displayed an error. Below excerpt from the log.
ld: 0711-866 INTERNAL ERROR: Output symbol table size miscalculated.

INFO: ld: 0711-759 INTERNAL ERROR: Source file xoutxx.c, line 574.
        Depending on where this product was acquired, contact your service
        representative or the approved supplier.

INFO: make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 16.


Stop.

INFO: make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 2.


Stop.

INFO: ----------------------------------
INFO: Exception thrown from action: make
Exception Name: MakefileException
Exception String: Error in invoking target 'links proc gen_pcscfg' of makefile 
      '/oracle/app/product/11.2.0.2/precomp/lib/ins_precomp.mk'. See 
      '/oracle/oraInventory/logs/installActions2015-09-22_08-11-37AM.log' for details.
Exception Severity: 1


As this is 11.2.0.2 version and the AIX is 7.1 I was afraid this may be due to some lacks in system filesets or so. It seems not so - all the details You may find in "AIX: ERROR IN INVOKING TARGET 'LINKS PROC GEN_PCSCFG' OF MAKEFILE, ld: 0711-593 SEVERE ERROR: Symbol C_BSTAT (Doc ID 985563.1)" on the Metalink.
