Nice to hear from you!
I glanced at the log. Only one test file fails and because of only one
failure (though technically, because it abends the test file, it fails all
12 of its tests).
It's this line: "abc\N{NULL}\'\efg" => "mno\N{NULL}",
The error message says it does not know the charname NULL. I dunno if this
is an AIX peculiarity or what. (There were complicated considerations with
Unicode, and I wound up finding \N{NULL} was the most portable way of
getting a NULL of the right size in every case.)
You can eliminate the test or (more careful practice) test for AIX and
replace it with one that works there.
Also, the Debian folks keep Marpa::R2 up to date on AIX, you might want to
see if they've gotten to this, and how they handled it.
