The patch works for as much as it is trying to accomplish. The
larger problem is that the libtool support for AIX has a lot of
misconceptions and the v3 configuration mechanism is far too SVR4-,
Solaris-, and Linux-centric. v3 needs to learn how to deal with AIX
atomicity, AIX pthreads, and AIX shared libraries.
I still have not heard any response to my request from last May
for help with the configuration issues. I can help explain AIX functional
equivalence to Linux, but this effort needs more attention from people who
understand libtool and v3/configure so that v3 uses the appropriate files
and defines the appropriate macros. AIX 4.3.3 support is part of the
gcc-3.0 release criteria, so the lack of assistance is going to delay
everyone.
