LD_LIBRARY_PATH does not work on AIX - the AIX equivalent is LIBPATH.
"make check" does not seem to rely on LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and it should
work with my patch (it worked here).
If pg_regress relies on LD_LIBRARY_PATH, it would have to be changed
to set LIBPATH in the AIX case :^(
The reason why all these problems manifest now is that - up to now -
PostgreSQL used static linking on AIX and it was not necessary to
find the shared library.
