Hello,

I've just ported PostgreSQL 6.5.3 to 2 machines:
IBM RS6000 590 running AIX 4.3.1, gcc 2.8.1, gnu make 3.78.1
IBM RS6000 J30 running AIX 4.2.1, gcc 2.8.1, gnu make 3.78.1

I have to compile the system using:

make --with-template=aix_gcc --without-CXX

Everything seems to work except when I'm compiling the regression test, on
both of the machines, it complained about:
