pip3 install pandas--error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1

[Justin-E-Taylor]

I’m getting an error trying to install pandas via:
-bash-4.3$ pip3 install pandas

I had issues installing numpy previously, and the numpy folks had me set a flag to get around that. I don’t know if something similar would be required here. numpy/numpy#11317

The entire stack trace is 15K lines. I can attach the whole thing if it will help. I'm including the last bit below.

Running Python 3.6.6-1 on IBMi OS.

xref #14373 unfortunately we don't support AIX. Would accept PRs if you have any to offer but otherwise it's not something we have built in support for
