Julia works on Linux, Windows and OS X - officially.

There are macros for those and a generic @unix that covers Linux and OS X. 
Not sure it would do for AIX. Do not know AIX too well, yes it is a Unix - 
an official one.

E.g. FreeBSD works I understand - I *guess* since not to different from 
Linux (has some Linux "compatibility" and same or similar programs, some 
differences may have been worked around in Julia, just not sure there is a 
@freebsd, macro). I think Solaris also works.

You're machine, should be able to run Linux (but you may not want to - or 
you may really do..). Maybe as a virtual machine under AIX if AIX doesn't 
work directly?

I'm a little interested in general how much work is needed for unsupported 
OSes.. Yours is probably easiest to support, work around if doesn't support 
already. [Without full (but some?) support: VMS (maybe as has similarity to 
Windows NT..?), zOS.. (would be a no..?). RISC OS? Amiga..?]
