Current CVS (after pgindent) compiles and regresses ok on AIX 4.3.2 
using the IBM compiler. It has the following problems:
1. AIX has int8,int16,int32,int64 in /usr/include/inttypes.h 
	--> configure fails to find snprintf support for int8 (because it
includes stdio.h)
	I feel this is an IBM problem. I changed my inttypes.h
2. No AIX in Makefile.shlib --> plpgsql.so is not built / no rule.
	a number of other platforms are also missing there
	a working rule is often in Makefile.port, but only for a single
object
	not multiple, which plpgsql has.
	The single object rule in Makefile.aix can be used to make a
plpgsql.so
	from libplpgsql.a. I built it manually.
3. libpq++ does not work because xlC does not have the string type/class ?
