Skimming http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.4/interactive/installation-platform-notes.html--
while it does not say anything specific about AIX 7.1, the biggest
problems seem to be with old gcc versions. I would think if 7.1 ships
with a decent version of gcc it will 'just work'. In any event you
may want to give that page a look.

This looks like its coming from a 3rd party installer, my hunch is
they do not ship binaries for AIX (7.1).
