Shouldn't make a lot of difference, but maybe worth a try (libtool is supposed
to factor in the differences between linkers already).

It's saying it supports shared libraries, saying it's building shared 
libraries, but is still producing static libraries.  It's a bit beyond me 
now...  sounds like a pretty major bug in libtool actually (since it's doing 
exactly the opposite of what it's being told to do).

A look on google says that using LDFLAGS="-Wl,-brtl" sometimes works (use 
'make LDFLAGS=...' rather than setting the environment).  That's for AIX 4.2 
apparently and is the default setting on AIX 5.

If that doesn't work I'll have to add AIX to a 'definately does not work' list.
