Finally we were able to install this successfully AIX. It's more of version 
issue.

There is good instruction at below link. Thanks all for your help.

k, thats a really old perl.

What *we* did for AIX was to build our OWN perl (I went ahead and used 5.12, 
but 
5.8 or whatever would be fine too, just something signfiicantly newer than 
5.00..) and set it up in /opt/(ourname)/perl5, then used CPAN to build all the 
modules we needed into this perl.

I used IBM XL C for this, but you can probably use gcc if you don't have an XL 
C 
license, just read the perl release notes on building for AIX, I seem to 
remember seeing somethign in there about some tweaks you should do if you use 
gcc...
