Linker woes on AIX

Hi Jonas and all,

this has been a very lousy day; I've battling with linker trouble
all day...

What's happening is that on AIX (but maybe also on other platforms),
linking -lglib-2.0 doesn't automatically bring in -lgobject-2.0 -
but the linker won't warn you. As a result tls, sasl etc libraries
will have unresolved symbols, and any app which links them will die
at startup.

I know this is not a general problem, and possibly very few people
will see this issue. However, there IS a general solution which won't
hurt anybody:
