On AIX 7.3 (machine: cfarm119.cfarm.net, compiler: gcc,
configure options: --with-openssl=no), the build fails due to a
compilation error:
CC src/yes.o

I guess the configuration needs to be tweaked. It found:
checking for splice... yes
and thus defined
$ grep -i splice config.status
D["HAVE_SPLICE"]=" 1"
