This was EXTREMELY helpful as it led me to problem. The default stack size 
for a pthread on AIX (at least in my configuration) is 96kB. On Solaris it's
1M. As soon as I explicitly set the initial stack size to 1M the problem
went away and it appears as if Zope is up and running.

Unfortunately I really had to change "thread_pthread.h" in Python which
obviously is not a nice thing to do as I now have a need for my own private
version of Python. But at least I have a running version of Zope on AIX.

Thanks,
Wolfgang
