Mike,

I figure that an accurate subject line is more important than 
threading.  So I tend to do a lot of "new subject [was: old subject]" changes.

Matthias,

Since the only problem with AIX seems to be compiler choice and configure 
can handle that, is there any need to update the FAQ or add a README.aix?

'Tis interesting that Elrond's only AIX issue was whether RPMs should gzip 
man pages.  Evidently he had no difficulties in building bogofilter.
