Does anyone know the correct configuration of the Makefile to get
bash to compile on a pc/rt running AIX 2.2.1?  I tried using
OS=SYSV (confused by the existence of sys/wait.h) and OS=Bsd
with the bsd compatibility library (got confused by NGROUPS.
I can probably get it compiled, but I wanted to check if anyone
else had done so..

BTW, on the PC/RT, NGROUPS (from /usr/include/grp.h) is 64*1024,
which is a little bigger than on most bsd machines (16).  Perhaps
the group_member() function should have some conditional cpp lines
in there to try using a smaller size, if necessary.  (Who needs
256k of data taken up for such a stupid function?)
