This might be an issue with your make setup, since the target on the
makefile uses the same macro to expand the head and the tail there.

If I remember correctly, _HPUX_SOURCE brings various definitions of
structs and functions that would otherwise not be exposed.  

I do not know what _AIX_SOURCE would do.
