Jameson Nash did some work pretty recently on getting Julia to build on PowerPC under Linux, see https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/master/Make.powerpc
Not sure how much of that would also work on AIX. Do you have access to GCC/Gfortran, or can you only use the IBM compilers? Some of the dependency builds would likely need a few patches. Try it and see what breaks first, if you're willing to file issues and probably a few pull requests, it's worth trying to get it to work.
