Re: config-ml.in AIX multilibs

This is indeed ok, but I'm wondering if it would be too hard to
detect, in case of native builds, whether linking ppc64 and pthread
libraries is going to work, and automatically disable them if it
fails, just like it is done on IRIX 6 for the 64-bit ABI.

At the very least, these configure flags should be documented.  I
can't find any documentation of --disable-aix64 nor --disable-pthread
in the documentation directory.  In fact, I can't find anything about
softfloat either.
