Comment(by drkirkby):

 There are two reasons this is not working.
  * There's nothing in {{{SPKG.txt}}} to handle the case of AIX
  * There's no target in the file {{{Make-arch}}} that will work with a
 generic compiler on AIX. The targets all assume the use of IBM's compiler.

 Two targets will be added for AIX, and since HP-UX will suffer the same
 problem, another two targets will be added for HP-UX. These 4 targets are:
  * {{{aix-generic}}}
  * {{{aix-generic-thr}}}
  * {{{hpux-generic}}}
  * {{{hpux-generic-thr}}}

 We might as well try building with the threaded versions (aix-generic-thr
 and hpux-generic-thr) on both AIX and HP-UX.
