Re: PATCH: IBM AIX patches

[Pavel Roskin <proski gnu org>]

Hi, Christian!

I actually submitted some AIX-related patches from Dan McNichol
<mcnichol austin ibm com>.  They looked very similar to your patch.

The only change that was not applied is using EXTRALIBS for gmc-client.
I understand that it needs libintl, but it certainly doesn't need libvfs
and libgtkedit.  I'm applying the following patch:

ChangeLog:
        * Makefile.in: Move i18n part of EXTRALIBS to INTLLIBS.  Use
        INTLLIBS when linking gmc-client.

I would like you to test the latest snapshot on
http://www.red-bean.com/~proski/mc/ on AIX and report the results. Please
give more information if you experience problems (compiler messages etc).

I hope to release mc-4.5.55 tonight.  It compiles out-of-box on RedHat
Linux 7.1, FreeBSD 4.3 and QNX Neutrino.  In the meantime I'll try to
install more systems to test it on.

Only very urgent patches will be applied before the release.
