We don't do much testing under AIX because we don't have easy access to a box. An additional approach would be to use some of the assertion stuff in include/ntp_assert.h and see if you can get something to violate an assertion. And if you can shed any light on bugs 135, 309, 598, or 716, that would be swell, too.
