I thought the subject was enough, but if you want more detail, I can do that.
Basicly we're just trying to get the testsuite to run with the IBM xlc compiler.
For the most part, it's just renameing the flags: -qmkshrobj for -shared,
-qpic for -fpic and that kind of thing. In one case, xlc was puting out a warning
that gcc doesn't and that had be turned off.

Could you give me a URL to your testsuite patch? I have 6 or so of these so If
you have a better way, I'd love to use it.
