Did you read the linked thread? Starting say about here:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/20240224172345.32%40rfd.leadboat.com#8b41e50c2190c82c861d91644eed9c30

Who is "we", and how much resources are you prepared to put into this?

The community, in the sense of the existing people doing significant
work on Postgres, are absolutely not going to do that. If you can
bring a bunch of work to fix all the problems noted in the discussion
thread, and commit to providing ongoing development manpower and
hardware to keep it working, maybe something could happen. But I
suspect you will find it cheaper to start thinking about migrating
off AIX.
