Comment(by drkirkby):
I'm still of the opinion this is a gcc bug, but getting the gcc developers
to fix it will be difficult.
I's submitted two patches to the GSL team, which I've attached here. These
are '''not''' in Mercurial format, so for the moment at least I don't
intend patching the GSL package in Sage. However, they have been accepted
upstream. I got an email today from Brian Gough, a GSL developer saying:
''Thanks for the patches, I've applied them.''
So the next version of GSL should not have these issues on AIX.
