That is not what I said.  I said "we've seen it working on
platforms A, B, and C in the past".  AIX is one of those platforms that I have 
been informed that people have had some success with.

I just searched my personal archives, and I have some private e-mail from a 
"Sinan Komut" who got it working with AIX 4.3 after making sure to use gmake, 
and not AIX's make, in February 2003.  A certain "Sven Specker" contacted me 
in July 2003 with problems on AIX 5.1 which were eventually resolved in CVS 
to his satisfaction.  Both were using gcc, I believe.  There may have been 
others.  In the absence of a new bug report, I have to assume that it is 
still OK.

Sorry, but I sometimes get confused between the mailing list archives and my 
own.  I get a lot of pnet-related messages, and keeping them all straight is 
nigh on impossible.  I was going from memory that "someone has done this 
before and it worked".

Cheers,

Rhys.
