Because do_aix-shared was proposed for AIX (obvious from the name of
the target, I thought). The involved variables have only been used
for AIX.
Look, we can talk history as much as you want, but I suggest we drop
that matter, leave do_aix-shared in 0.9.7 as it is (except for
variable values that need to be tweaked) and work on Makefile.shared
for 0.9.8, yes?

Ah, good, I must have missed it back when I had access to an AIX
system and it's manuals...

None, so I have no more objections.
