did the AIX native C compiler work with changes on configure.in?

We can add support for AIX directly to configure.in I guess, since we handle 
some fractions of platform specific parts already inside:

case "$host" in
   *-sun-solaris*)
     CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -DSunOS=1"
     ;;
   *-cygwin*)
     EXE_EXT=".exe"
     ;;
   *apple-darwin*)
     # MacOS X
     [...]
     ;;
   *-linux-*)
     CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -D_XOPEN_SOURCE=600 -D_BSD_SOURCE"
     LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -rdynamic"
     ;;
   *-*-openbsd* | *-*-freebsd*)
     CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -pthread"
     AC_CHECK_LIB(c_r, pthread_exit, [LIBS="$LIBS -lc_r"; pthread="yes"])
     AC_CHECK_LIB(kse, pthread_exit, [LIBS="$LIBS -lkse"; pthread="yes"])
     ;;
esac

If you can provide a normal ssh account for me to board a corresponding box, I'd 
be willing to work it out on the machine, so we have it supported out-of-the-box.
