Thanks Noah and Team,

We (IBM-AIX team) looked into this issue

https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/20240225194322...@rfd.leadboat.com

This is related to the compiler issue. The compilers xlc(13.1) and gcc(8.0) 
have issues. But we verified that this issue is resolved with the newer 
compiler versions openXL(xlc17.1) and gcc(12.0) onwards.

We reported this issue to the xlc team and they have noted this issue. A fix 
might be possible in May for this issue in xlc v16.  We would like to 
understand if the community can start using the latest compilers to build the 
source.

Also as part of the support, we will help in fixing all the issues related to 
AIX and continue to support AIX for Postgres. If we need another CI environment 
we can work to make one available. But for time being can we start reverting 
the patch that has removed AIX support.

We want to make a note that postgres is used extensively in our IBM product and 
is being exploited by multiple customers.

Please let us know if there are any specific details you'd like to discuss 
further.

Regards,
Sriram.
