I have just committed a change to configure that should work around that 
by removing the "-qlanglvl=ansi" if it finds the compiler won't let 
macros be redefined.  (Not ideal, but it should work.)

The changes will be in snap 20060919 and later.  I think the "struct 
aud_rec" ones were a side effect of the compiler flags, but if you see 
them again (they'll only appear in port-aix.c now) then please let me know.

Those will probably still be there but as warnings.  We'll see what we 
can do to clean those up after the release.

Thanks.

usually comes from bad judgement.
