It seems "C for AIX Compiler, Version 6" doesn't like "restrict" (at 
least not in the form 'array[restrict]').

However, it seems said compiler also has no stdbool.h, and so the 
(broken) replacement header is still used, ergo the original problem is 
not solved.

I finally did this (in stdbool.h):
107 #  if defined _AIX
108 #   define _Bool int
109 #  else
110 #   define _Bool signed char
111 #  endif

...at which point, the build finishes and the test suit passes (with the 
expected XFAIL's).
