 You can also add some more macros to the perlasm which already translates a
LOT of opcodes into something older assemblers won't choke on.

the "stvx" assembler instruction in the sha256p8-ppc.s module. I have built
prior version OpenSSL packages on AIX without issue until now (prior was
1.0.1c), and I haven't varied the steps I typically use. Specifics are:

Yes, AIX 5.2 TL 8. I believe that IBM stopped providing fixes for that
particular technology level in February 2007, stopped standard support
for AIX 5.2 final technology level (TL 10) in April 2009, stopped
admitting to ever having heard of 5.2 sometime in 2012. no-asm seems to
be the appropriate way to deal with this.
