ctypes for AIX

Hello,

I would suggest two things:
1) try with the latest Python 2.6.x, because 2.5 only receives security 
fixes now. 2.6 is the stable branch which receives regular bug fixes 
(which includes build problems)
2) if Python 2.6.x also fails compiling, please file a bug report on
http://bugs.python.org

Regards

Antoine.
