:     HP-UX xxxxx A.09.05 A 9000/715 2010262449 two-user license

c89 does not recognize the -Ae option. However cc does. It means
enable some HP-UX specific extensions to the compiler. These are
to define _HPUX_SOURCE to see all HPUX supported functions and to
add some language extensions. They only one I can remember is 'short enum'.
Judging by the fact it is not documented in the latest man pages makes me
think it is an option for which support is being removed.
