It is some time since i used AIX but maybe this help.
So far i know has IBM moved to gnu-tools if not do it,
it will ease the pain. I assume that you have gcc etc running.
after downloading the latest version of mysql source.
1. unpack
2. ./configure
if it complains try to fix it
/* hope for the best */
3. make
if it complains try to fix it
4. make check
/* i do not remember the exact target but this runs the test
and should also be found with INSTALL
*/
5. make install
note that you still have to make sure that the db will start at boot

do not blame me if something fails, i have not used AIX since 4.1.
