Description:
Connecting the 32bit or 64bit AIX agents a critical error is shown in the log:

 2008-10-24 14:24:40: (critical) job_collect_os.c:416: sigar_cpu_list_get() failed

Also, trying "<AGENT> --agent-run-os-tests", it crashes:

mysqldev@aix53:/data0/mysqldev/merlin/agent/2.0.0.7083/aix5.3-powerpc-64bit/aix53> bin/mysql-monitor-agent --agent-run-os-tests
2008-10-24 15:26:08: (critical) network-socket.c.299: connect(127.0.0.1:3306) failed: Connection refused (79)
sigar-test-all.c.105 (test_sigar_pid_get):
  pid = 630794
Assertion failed: __EX, file  sigar-test-all.c, line 78
IOT/Abort trap (core dumped)

How to repeat:
- install AIX5.3 agent and connect to dashboard

these are two issues in one bug-report:

1060 jan@kneschke.de	2008-10-29
     let --sigar-test-all not assert() out if a platform doesn't support a call 
     (fixes #40309 partially)
modified:
 plugins/agent/sigar-test-all.c

fixes the --sigar-test-all side of it. The real issue is that AIX + sigar doesn't return a CPU list right now.

- agent 2.0.0.7092 no longer crashes when called with '--agent-run-os-tests'
- but still shows "(critical) job_collect_os.c:433: sigar_cpu_list_get() failed"
  (for what I set this bug back to VER)
