What you mention above *should* work for AIX, however it should be
noted I have only compiled using IBM xlC_r and cmake at this point.
So I am not 100% sure if anything else is needed for the autotool
scripts.

On HP/UX, I had to add a few -D's for the HP aCC compiler to get it to
compile.  So the autotool script will need a bit more work.

I apologize, I have not found the time to install autotools to create
a patch for AIX and HP/UX for you guys.  I will try to get to this as
soon as I can, but unfortunately it probably won't be before Monday!

Later,
George.
