Your problem is that you are compiling your application with 8.1.7 libraries and trying to run it under 7.3.4. Oracle libraries may change with versions therefore, instead of trying to hack your way thru, like renaming libraries, you should try building your application on 7.3.4 server if you want to run it there.

FYI... 7.3.4 has long been desupported and it was never certified on AIX 5L systems.
