I can confirm that the attached program works on cfarm111 (AIX 7.1)
and cfarm119 (AIX 7.3), though "man realpath" denies it on both
systems.
I also found leftover test files demonstrating that I checked this
same point on Apr 26 2024, so I'm not sure why that didn't turn up
in a mail list search.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int
main(int argc, char **argv)
{
char *pth = realpath(argv[1], NULL);
if (pth)
{
printf("successfully resolved \"%s\" as \"%s\"\n",
argv[1], pth);
free(pth);
}
else
perror("realpath");
return 0;
}
