"libc.a" was substituted by autotools in mono/data/config.in
as the name of the "libc" of your system.

It's the value of the LIBC variable in configure.in which
defaults to "libc.so.6", but it seems that you've changed
it to "libc.a". This is most likely wrong, unless "libc.a"
is a dynamic library on AIX.
