OpenJdk AIX PPC 64 latest binaries

[Volker Simonis]

Hi Marck,

we only provide the binaries you mentioned as convenience for people
to enable them to bootstrap on OpenJDK build on AIX. They are
outdated, not heavily tested and we won't provide any support for
them. We don't provide binaries of the port and we have no plans to do
so.

If you need binaries, you must build them yourself (and you're free to
provide these builds to the community if you'd like :)

Building the OpenJDK on AIX should not be too hard if you follow the
instructions at
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/ppc-aix-port/jdk7u/raw-file/tip/README-ppc.html
Please use the latest jkd7 sources from
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/ppc-aix-port/jdk7u

Should there be any problems, we would be happy to help.

Regards,
Volker
