Just to be clear, I'm asking if _you_ are using the MakeFile build. You've updated both the Gradle and MakeFile builds, are you actually using both of them?

If you don't need the MakeFile build, I suggest we just keep AIX support unimplemented there. Like I said, it's really only there to support Oracle CI at the moment (and Oracle doesn't build/test on AIX), the Gradle build is for public use.
