Research direction

Start by reproducing the Boost.Process v2 build on AIX 7100-05 and inspect the reported locations in impl/pid.ipp, ext/impl/exe.ipp, and impl/error.ipp. Determine why these files report an unsupported platform and a duplicate SIGLOST case, then verify that the AIX build completes without those errors.
