GNU ld under AIX

Hello,
I seem to recall some discussion about whether or not
the latest CVS of GNU ld would support AIX, that it did,
and that the top-level configure.in had not been updated
to reflect that it currently worked. Checking the latest
CVS snapshot it appears that ld is still disabled under
AIX (at the top level) so here's a patch.
Thanks,
Robert

# GNU ld is known to be broken for AIX 4.2 and 4.3 (at least)
# The symptom is that GDBtk 4.18 fails at startup with a segfault
