libev compile on AIX

[Tamás Gulácsi]

Hi,

I'm sorry, I've had read this (eliminate poll or use SVN) on the
mailing list, but as I downloaded both the SVN and the 3.9 version, it
mixed a little bit.

So eventually with the 3.9 "configuration" script and the SVN's .h, .c
files I could compile libev on AIX 5.3 (some tweaking needed:
  1. configure failed with CC=xlc_r - had to use gcc and edit the
resulting Makefile
  2. libtool failed linking 64bit: "ar" needed -X64 option - after
editing libtool AR_FLAGS, it worked
).

Thanks again, now I have a working libev, fapws3 on AIX.
