Unable to build gmake 3.79.1 on AIX 4.3.3.0

[tom_honermann]

I've been trying to compile GNU make 3.79.1 on an AIX 4.3.3.0 system and
have so far been unable to.  The problems I've run into are all related to
the I18N support recently added.  I've tried building with and without NLS
support.  Here's the results:

./configure

Any ideas?
