There used to be access to an AIX system on the compile farm, but I do
not know about the status of that.
https://portal.cfarm.net/machines/list/ lists
cfarm111 and cfarm119 as AIX machines, a POWER7
and POWER8 system, respectively.
Bootstrap works ok on cfarm119, with the right options. I haven't tried on
cfarm111 for a few years.
In the spirit of "Why not?" I gave this a spin. After replacing
make with gmake via a symlink in ~/bin (and setting the PATH
accordingly), I tried to run a bootstrap which failed somewhere
along the lines with
checking for powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.5.0-gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler works... no
configure: error: in `/home/tkoenig/trunk-bin/mpfr':
configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details
Not submitting a PR on this one, the environment on that
machine may be strange.
Anyone wanting to get this to work will have their work cut out.
If anybody wants to take a peek, /home/tkoenig is world-readable
on that machine.
Best regards
Thomas
