Does anyone know if "-m32" is ever needed? (I.e. won't a correctly configured
gcc (hah!) automatically compile for the local architecture?
Volodymyr: what does "uname -m" return on the IBM machine? Can we at least
special-case out the -m32 flag?

As far as I can tell, nab.c does not actually need <fcntl.h>, which I don't
think is part of the ISO standard. But I'm reluctant to change this, since
it hasn't caused problems (except for the non-standard location, fixed above.)

Yannick: can we get rid of all dependence on complex.h!?!

Can you send Wei (zwieg.scripps.edu) some of the errors? Or maybe someone can
arrange for Wei to get access to an AIX machine. It's not a show-stopper now
to not have IBM Power 5 support, but in the longer term, this would be nice.
Thanks to Volodymyr for carrying out these tests.
