unknown 65a32e834f Fix for bug #31254: "Max_data_length" truncated / reported wrong
(compiler issue ?)

Problem:

Improper compile-time flags on AIX prevented use of files > 2 GB. This
resulted in Max_data_length being truncated to 2 GB by MyISAM code.

Solution:

Reverted large-file changes from the fix for bug10776. We need to define
_LARGE_FILES on AIX to have support for files > 2 GB.

 Since _LARGE_FILE_API is incompatible with _LARGE_FILES and may be
automatically defined by including standards.h, we also need a
workaround to avoid this conflict.

  Reverted large-file changes from the fix for bug10776. We need to define
  _LARGE_FILES on AIX to have support for files > 2 GB.
include/my_global.h:
  _LARGE_FILE_API is defined in standards.h that is automatically included
  by at least some C++ compilers on AIX. Since it is also incompatible
  with _LARGE_FILES which is required for POSIX IO calls to be
  largefile-safe, the only workaround is to explicitely #undef
  _LARGE_FILE_API.
