Summary: Build Python2.4.1 on AIX5 using xlc v6

Initial Comment:
Using IBM's Visualage compiler to build Python on AIX,
requires small changes to the code, to let it compile
cleanly.
OS version: AIX 5.2
xlc version: 6

The changes are:
1 AIX defines hz as a preprocessor symbol and it
creates a conflict during preprocessing in the
_codecs_cn.c. This symbol has been selectively
undefined for AIX only
2.Trailing commas in an enum
3. Multiple defines of the _THREAD_SAFE symbol in
python/thread.c. This has been selectively undefined.
