Re: 21.2-b28 CVS as of today. dll_open() lossage.

The dll_* routines are in xemacs/src/sysdll.c - sounds like somebody
broke
the module autoconf magic. Is that not file not being compiled in? I
haven't built a beta in a while, nor made changes, so twasn't me.:)
I tracked this failure down - it seems that aclocal.m4 needed information
on the fact that the IBM xlc compiler does PIC by default. Patch attached.
While I was there, I found that db.h wasn't being detected, mostly because
configure.in, in the checks for <db/db.h> and <db.h> first does a #include
of <inttypes.h> and then typedefs uint8_t, uint_16_t, and uint32_t itself,
which promptly errors out because they were typedef;ed in AIX's <inttypes.h>
I didn't create a patch for this one because I didn't know what can of worms
those typedefs were put in to fix....
