Re: [PATCH] Set _ALL_SOURCE for AIX, but avoid its struct list.

And Junio C Hamano writes:

Yuck.

Yuck, thy name is AIX.

What the h**k is _ALL_SOURCE?  What are the valid other
possibilities, _ALL_BINARY???

There's no equivalent to features.h...  And while this includes
a few repeats:
 bash-3.2$ find /usr/include/ -name \*.h|xargs fgrep -h \#ifdef|sort|uniq|wc -l
      402

I am wondering if we want to do "#ifdef _AIX" around truly yucky
parts.

Sure.

I notice that I did not heed Linus's suggestion to define these
to 1 to make them behave identically as "cc -D_GNU_SOURCE", by
the way...

I missed the suggestion altogether.  Sounds like the right thing
to do.

Also I wonder if we do _ALL_SOURCE before any of the system
header files on AIX, if we still need "_XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED 1"
which we specifically added for AIX.

The #ifdef _ALL_SOURCE in netdb.h comes right after the #endif of
#ifdef _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED.  So all doesn't really mean all,
just kinda sorta maybe some.

Yeah, AIX is a joy.  And thanks to DARPA and the DOE, it ain't
going away.  The following seems to work for me on Solaris 5.8
and AIX 5.3.

Jason, wishing they would all just see the light...
