  AIX:	A complete overhaul of the shared library support is now in
! 	place.  See Misc/AIX-NOTES for some notes on how it's done.
  	(The optimizer bug reported at this place in previous releases
! 	has been worked around by a minimal code change.)
! 	In addition, Gary Duzan has a hint for C++ users: to enable
! 	full C++ module support, set CC="xlC" (or CC="xlC_r" for thread
! 	support in AIX 4.2.1).
  
  HP-UX:	Please read the file Misc/HPUX-NOTES for shared libraries.
