It turns out there's an AIX box in the gcc compile farm, so just
out of curiosity I had a look.
(1) we don't recognize the cpu so you have to pass --cpu=ppc64
(2) we unconditionally pass -m64 for ppc64, which the AIX gcc
doesn't recognize, so you have to hack configure to avoid that
(3) after all that, AIX gcc doesn't have a working __thread for TLS
So yes, definitively broken and likely has been for years.
