AIX is not supported by Postgres 17.X.  IBM has made noises about
contributing the necessary effort and expertise to re-support it
in 18.X and later ... but so far they haven't entirely followed
through.  See discussion here:

Personally, I'd be much happier anyway if there were a grassroots,
community-driven effort to deal with the problems that made us
remove the AIX port.  If you can be part of that, step right up.
