If it were my port, however, I'd probably do as Roger suggests; test for
the broken assembler and disable multilibs that won't work with that
assembler. I agree that looping forever during a bootstrap seems
undesirable.
However, I'm willing to leave this in the hands of the AIX maintainer,
i.e., David. If David feels strongly that the status quo is better --
or if nobody produces a configure patch for the test -- then I guess
it's OK as is.
