We currently use that on Solaris, but I think I remember seeing problems 
even with that, but I might be misremembering.

We should probably add to the "Add any platform-specific compiler flags 
needed" case in configure.in an item to add -DFUNCPROTO=15 on AIX - and 
perhaps to add them for non-GCC compilers (Sun C, XLC or whatever IBM's 
compiler is called) as well.
