These seem actually related. Under any kind of threading it seems
that the time-related system calls break.

This means that
struct timeval Tp;
gettimeofday (&Tp, NULL);
returned {3049377, 963276} in the struct timeval. (And assuming that
a UV is large enough to store a member of a struct timeval.)
(Well, the other alternative is that this AIX box has its clock set
to early February 1970...)

This is the same thing, as is the op/magic failure.
Please try compiling and executing this:
#include <sys/time.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
struct timeval tv;
int status = gettimeofday(&tv, 0);
printf("%ld %ld (%d)\n", (long)tv.tv_sec, (long)tv.tv_usec, status);
return 0;
}
with the cc/xlc/vac/whichever settings you have in that AIX box,
and see whether compiling threaded breaks this. By now you should
get values like 994775434 for the tv_sec.
