1). AIX 5.3 (/usr/bin/tr) as an argument (-A) that was not used by the
command 'lslpp', so the message does not occur:
root@x064:[/home/prj/gnu/coreutils-8.29]/usr/bin/tr -A
tr: 0653-712 The combination of options and String parameters is not legal.
Usage: tr [ -[c|C] | -[c|C]ds | -[c|C]s | -ds | -s ] [-A] String1 String2
tr { -[c|C]d | -[c|C]s | -d | -s } [-A] String1

/opt/bin/tr: invalid option -- 'A'
Try '/opt/bin/tr --help' for more information.

2). AIX 6.1 - at some point - modified it's command "lslpp" to utilize
"tr -A" - and now, when coreutils are preferred - this generates an
error message on AIX.

The following is not REALLY - a solution. But I hope it clarifies the issue.
