AIX has been unable to bootstrap since the match-and-simplify merge.
Richard Biener and I tracked this back to a bad interaction between a
GCC optimization and the AIX linker -G option to allow for SVR4-style
runtime linking.
The following patch removes the linker option from the libstdc++
build. This will prevent runtime function interposition, e.g.
overriding operator new, when using libstdc++, but that is rarely
needed.
This patch also uses the default atomic support
Bootstrapped on powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.0.0

* configure.host (aix5+): New stanza.
(aix4.3+): Do not use -G in link command.
