FYI, ppc-elf doesn't use rs6000_extract_return_value:

  if (sysv_abi && wordsize == 8)
    set_gdbarch_return_value (gdbarch, ppc64_sysv_abi_return_value);
  else if (sysv_abi && wordsize == 4)
    set_gdbarch_return_value (gdbarch, ppc_sysv_abi_return_value);
  else
    {
      set_gdbarch_deprecated_extract_return_value (gdbarch, 
rs6000_extract_return_value);
      set_gdbarch_deprecated_store_return_value (gdbarch, 
rs6000_store_return_value);
    }

so those test results are not relevant :-(

Kevin,

This AIX code is long overdue for an update, now is the time to do it. 
Even if it means accepting just hand test results.
