Thanks; the unit tests succeed for me too, now.

But canonicalize-lgpl.c had similar changes, and it has a similar failure
on AIX 7.2, still today:

  ../../gltests/test-canonicalize-lgpl.c:100: assertion 'result == NULL' failed
  FAIL test-canonicalize-lgpl (exit status: 134)

Probably your changes to canonicalize.c could be applied to canonicalize-lgpl.c.
But Adhemerval Zanella has come up with another set of patches, from the glibc
point of view:
