Aix runs on quite different cpu architectures and platforms, including
S/390, from very big to medium platforms.

You cannot just a any AOO binary and run it on AIX, it need to be compiled
to aix and the target platform. For the risc line that is a piece of cake
using the BSD port, but for bigger platforms, AOO needs to be configured
quite differently.

I have no experience in porting AOO, but have ported a number of other sw
to aix, and it was not an easy job, especially not when moving towards
mainframes.
