NO_MKDTEMP is required to build, FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES and the definition
of _LARGE_FILES fix test suite failures and INTERNAL_QSORT is required for
adequate performance.

I'm trying this patch on AIX 4.3.3 (sigh!) with gcc3...

Now the interaction between FREAD_READS_DIRECTORIES and _LARGE_FILES
has been sorted out, and the
wt-status.h warning fix is also in, did you manage to finish testing
this? The INTERNAL_QSORT gave me a 2 orders of magnitude speed up on
git status / commit etc.

I should have mentioned that I build with SHELL_PATH = /bin/bash and
ensure that /usr/linux/bin (or /opt/freeware/bin) from the AIX toolbox
is prepended to the PATH to run the test-suite. I didn't want to fold
these into the patch as the paths are somewhat environment specific.
