Description:
  On AIX, the compiler is able to handle DWARF-5 but not the linker.

Changelog:
2020-07-07 Clement Chigot <clement.chi...@atos.net>
 * configure.ac: Extend check to the linker for DWARF-5 support
 * configure: Regenerate

Please apply for me if approved.
Could it be backported in gcc-10 branch too, please ?

Thanks, 
Clément
