Subversion 1.6.1 broken on AIX compiling with xlc

[Jens Rehsack <re...@googlemail.com>]

Hi all,

I assist Greg updating the subversion-package for PkgSrc and tried out
whether it builds fine on AIX - it doesn't, but the problem was really small.

It seems that the xlc doesn't like the redefinition of the stat() function.
My solution was easy - I renamed the stat() function to stat_cmd() - see
attached patch.

Best regards,

+1

I've done this before when building svnserve with dietlibc.
