Thanks, Maurice, for answering that question separately.

Actually, Joao, there has now been one further iteration and Don reports
that --disable-cxx --disable-f77 --disable-tcl builds fine on AIX.  There is
one other installation problem we are sorting out at the moment, but once
that is done, I am discussing a possible fix for tcl/tk with Maurice which I
hope that Don would be willing to test before 5.2.1.

The AIX fixes for f77 and C++ are not so obvious so we may have to put those
off until after 5.2.1.
