We have a loaned AIX 4.1.x box here and tried to port RPM once a few
months ago. Unfortunately this AIX version disliked us very much
initially so we suspended this. But if it is possible to get access to
an AIX 5.1 box, we can try it again to port RPM to this Unix flavor.
Please contact me in private email with the details for access to this
box. My PGP keys you find on my homepage.
PS: The fts.c is obvious to fail because it always needed adjustments
due to some highly non-portable code.
