Andrew,

This is confusing.   In the current sources here is the snippet from
bfd/configure dealing with  AIX cores:

  rs6000-*-aix5.* | powerpc-*-aix5.*)
        COREFILE=rs6000-core.lo
        COREFLAG="$COREFLAG -DAIX_5_CORE -DAIX_CORE_DUMPX_CORE"
        ;;
  rs6000-*-aix4.[4-9]* | powerpc-*-aix4.[4-9]* | \
  rs6000-*-aix4.3.[3-9]* | powerpc-*-aix4.3.[3-9]*)
        COREFILE=rs6000-core.lo
        COREFLAG="$COREFLAG -DAIX_CORE_DUMPX_CORE"

It looks like this patch is adding aix5 support but it is already there.

What version of binutils is this patch derrived from?
