+We have problem using hardcoded directories like /usr/local here
+which will be checked for cross builds. This is a special case which
+is valid for AIX only. We do not have AIX as one of our supported
+build host or target. Therefore we get rid of the hardcoded paths
+and make life easier for cross compilation process.
