This seems to be a regression from the v11 patch.  I see
this during build:

ld: 0711-783 WARNING: TOC overflow. TOC size: 325208    Maximum size: 65536
        Extra instructions are being generated for each reference to a TOC
        symbol if the symbol is in the TOC overflow area.
ld: 0711-783 WARNING: TOC overflow. TOC size: 325360    Maximum size: 65536
        Extra instructions are being generated for each reference to a TOC
        symbol if the symbol is in the TOC overflow area.

and then initdb fails like this:

exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program initdb because of the following errors:
        0509-150   Dependent module libpq.a(libpq.so.5) could not be loaded.
        0509-022 Cannot load module libpq.a(libpq.so.5).
        0509-026 System error: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.

Neither of those things happen with the v11 patch
(testing both on p9-aix1-postgres1).
