    -      if ( ( c == 1073741823L ) || ( pi <= -10000 ) ) 
    +      if ( ( c == 1073741823L ) || ( pi <= 2550000L ) ) 

As far as I can tell from some quick searches, that -10000 is the
eject_penalty, which is -inf_bad, where inf_bad=10000.

Those numbers have not changed in the *.{web,ch} files as far as I can
tell.  (And it seems like a pretty fundamental thing, so I wouldn't
expect it to change.)  When I grep the current generated *.c files
for "pi <=" it is being compared to -10000 not 255MM.

Therefore I suspect something in the web2c translation process itself
that only manifests itself on AIX.  Check your tex.p for starters, that
will determine whether it is tangle (unlikely) or web2c.
