Yes, correct. Only the patch above is necessary so that emacs works
very fine under AIX 5.2. Last checkout is from 2005-09-13, but before
it worked too if I did some corrections in syswait.h. If I mentioned
before I see the problem too under AIX 4.2. There I tried today your
workaround explained in a second message, but I had no luck. So I am
still looking forward for a fix.
