I am not aware of such an animal. I looked at the output of " touch x.c
&& gcc -v -dM -E x.c" but didn't find anything when compared to AIX 6.1.
We could set one in configure (like _AIXVER43) or use _AIX + uname().
How about checking for the failure case, where getaddrinfo returns
EAI_NODATA on _AIX with a non-NULL servname. If that happens, call
getaddrinfo again with a NULL servname.
