AIX notes

On AIX", the heap tools trigger and catch segment violation signals (SIGSEGV) during the dynamic typing of blocks. Usually this will be invisible to you. However, if you run the heap tools under a debugger, it will trap the signal SIGSEGV, and you will enter the debugger that is executing the heap tool code. To avoid this, tell the debugger to ignore the signal 11, SIGSEGV. For example, in the shell, use

    xdb -i11 Foo &
where Foo is your program's name.
