Using the following system:

RS/6000 7025 F50]
* 4 x 332 MHz 32-bit PowerPC CPUs
* 3 GB RAM
* A fair wide mixture of disks sizes (3 x 9 GB, 1 x 18 GB, 2 x 36 GB and
1 x 73 GB)
* AIX 5.3 (A POSIX certified operating system)
* gcc 4.2.4 downloaded from [http://pware.hvcc.edu/ pware]
* DDS-4 tape drive
Cliquer failed to install due to a lack of {{{getopt.h}}} It can't
determine the platform, which probably does not help the situation.

It's quite possible that an installation of an AIX fileset would include
the file {{{getopt.h}}}, but it looks like its a header will should at
least consider checking for. However, comments on #9870 suggest we do not
need the Cliquer executable (only the libraries), in which case there's no
need for {{{getopt}}}.
