Mark,

Thanks for writing. I've forwarded your mail to the FreeTDS list. I
myself don't know anything about AIX, much less its autoconf/makefile
requirements. But AIX is discussed there from time to time, and maybe
someone will know what (if anything) should be done about the issues you
raised.

Regards,

--jkl
