Sorry about that. It appears you ran into GCC bug 23336, an old bug I wasn't familiar with. By the time this bug was fixed in 2006, the GCC folks had stopped maintaining GCC 3.x. See:

https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23336

I hope there's a way to
define the relevant macros only for AIX, so that other platforms
aren't affected, certainly not during the pretest.

I gave that a shot in emacs-24 bzr 117185.
