Compiling nagios-plugins-1.3.1 on AIX 5.2

[Ewan Leith]

Sounds like the ./configure isn't picking up the fact that AIX has a
va_copy, run ./configure again and look for a line:

checking for __va_copy... yes

If you don't see it, then maybe you need to hard-code it, if so i'll look
through my configure and see what's its detecting it as.
