At any rate, here's a revision to CVS HEAD to reflect some changes by
myself and by Seneca Cunningham for the AIX FAQ. It touches on the
following issues:
1. memcpy pointer patch for dynahash.c
2. AIX memory management, which can, for 32 bit cases, bite people
quite unexpectedly...

Backpatch FAQ's to 8.1.X.

We haven't seen any agreement emerge as to what is causing AIX 5.3 ML32005-11-04T18:16:50ZBruce Momjian2005-11-04T18:16:50Zurn:sha1:081ed99b1e92cea0b964c0cfe65c4704540940a8
to fail to successfully build the release candidates.
However, a patch has emerged (thanks, Seneca!) that does allow it to
work, and which I'd expect to be portable (better still!).
We are still actively pursuing why it breaks, but supposing that still
remains outstanding, at least the following would allow AIX users to
better survive a build...
