A hard call to make, imho.

Thinking aloud...

Currently, for AIX 6.1 and AIX 7.1 your proposal for the code change would be 
great, but less so for AIX 7.2.

However! Since libm (on AIX) is a static library - the behavior depends on the 
support libm has on the build system.

I'll have to puzzle a bit with the configure process and figure out how to best 
determine the behavior of the build system. On a properly patched AIX 7.2 
system the standard code would apply, on others the "adjusted behavior".

So, would you go for modified based on what version of libm is installed, 
better how this function is behaving?
