I checked on my system and the original aix_xlC_5.0.patch will not
work with AIX patch so it seems that compatibility with AIX patch is
irrelevant. Here are my results:

snoopy$ uname -a
AIX snoopy 3 4 000544244C00

# with AIX patch:
snoopy$ /usr/bin/patch -p0 < patches/aix_xlC_5.0.patch 
Processing...  I cannot find a patch in there anywhere.

# with gnu patch:
snoopy$ /usr/local/bin/patch -p0 < patches/aix_xlC_5.0.patch
