That's essentially true. In 2011 I added back in limited support for
static-only builds because gcov didn't work with shared libraries at the
time, but it was never complete.
We only have build system support for AIX 4 and 5. That's not to say the
current tree actually builds on AIX 4 and 5, but src/config/shlib.conf
recognizes them and sets up the correct commands for building shared
libraries. It's not clear to me from previous email exchanges whether
extending the AIX 5 support in shlib.conf to AIX 6 or 7 would be correct.
We will accept reasonable patches to make krb5 compile on AIX 7, but we
don't have the resources to develop or test them.
