More on cvs-1.11 and IBM AIX 4.2

[Nelson H. F. Beebe]

Following my bug report about the build failure of cvs-1.11 on IBM AIX 4.2
this morning with the default gcc compiler, which produced a check failure

% env TESTDIR=$HOME/build/cvs-sanity make check
...
/bin/sh ./sanity.sh `pwd`/cvs
This test should produce no other output than this line, and a final "OK".
FAIL: basic2-64
make[1]: *** [check] Error 1

I rebuilt cvs-1.11 in a new directory using the IBM native cc compiler.
This gave exactly the same failure as before.

The only thing different between the "make check" runs on this
system version the other 9 I've done builds on is the setting
of TESTDIR, which is needed because the /tmp/cvs-sanity already
exists, but is owned by someone else on this system.

However, to check that, I ran the "make check" on another
system sharing the same file system, without setting TESTDIR,
and the same failure again occurred.
