    To all AIX V3 users with AFS.

    The loader of AIX 03.01.07.0025 doesn't work with object files in an
    AFS. The generated error message is

You can continue to use the 3.1.7 version of "ld"; the only thing you
need to replace is /usr/lib/bind (the 3.1.6 version works).  The problem
is that the 3.1.7 version tries to memory map the file, and that is
currently not supported with AFS 3.1 (the VM integration for AIX is
incomplete, I believe).
