Tested only on powerpc-aix, I can see :)

AIX functions look distinctly unlike other (32-bit) PowerPC functions,
because AIX uses function descriptors and powerpc-eabi/powerpc-linux/etc
do not.  This is only valid for AIX.

You should either find a way to make it work on both - unlikely to be
worth the trouble - or call this file something AIX specific.
