Michael Haubenwallner:

With a little help from my friend, the native-cctools wrapping ld to support
'-soname' flag on AIX, we can provide full soname support there (#213277).
However, this patch is not for upstream, as they cannot rely on that ld wrapper:
They would have to do the aix-soname magic themself instead.
