compiled GNU Emacs 21.4.1 on IBM AIX 5.3 after small change to ./configure

[Louis . Strous]

L.S.,

I successfully compiled GNU Emacs 21.4.1 on IBM AIX 5.3, but only after making a small change to ./configure:
I changed

  rs6000-ibm-aix5.1* | powerpc-ibm-aix5.1*  )
    machine=ibmrs6000 opsys=aix4-2
  ;;

to

 rs6000-ibm-aix5.1* | powerpc-ibm-aix5.*  )
    machine=ibmrs6000 opsys=aix4-2
  ;;

i.e., I made the case apply not just to AIX 5.1.* but to AIX 5.*.  Otherwise, the build is done (on my AIX 5.3) as if it is for AIX 3.2, which causes many warnings and finally fails because HFT features (with associated header files) are expected to be available but are not.

Some possibly useful information:

$ uname -a
AIX apocalypse 3 5 00403C9C4C00

$ emacs --version
GNU Emacs 21.4.1
