Re: subshell on AIX

["Alexander Varakin" <avarakin00 hotmail com>]

Yes, it was working long time back, some very ancient version, something
like 4.1 or 4.0, and it was working on both 4.3.3 and 5.1.
I tried 4.51, 4.55 , even the version supplied with the IBM's Linux
Toolbox -  nothing works.
I think this problem was introduced while moving to autoconfig : the
subshell code itself is ok, the problem is that wrong platform specific code
is selected by #ifdef's.
Please apply my patch, there are still some poor souls around who have to
work on AIX :)
