Follow-up Comment #1, bug #62173 (project make):

It's eventually up to Paul, but I feel slightly uneasy with such fixes for the
benefit of a system we barely support and that is not a free OS.  E.g., I have
quite a few of similar issues with the test suite on MS-Windows, but I never
thought I should make changes non-trivial to the test suite to make those
pseudo-failures pass.  Instead, I eyeball the test diffs to determine whether
the issue is real or not.

In any case, the changes should be commented to explain the problem which led
to the solution, as we cannot rely on everyone to be aware of the AIX quirks.
