I don't see where I would have said that. However, compared to the Windows platform, which seems to have been separate for quite some time now, the answer still might (and probably better should) be something like "yes, kind of". That "Unix" platform should also embrace AIX.
I am aware that nobody has all hardware and OS variants at hand, but if we don't keep fighting for common source and a minimal number of "#ifdef"s, we will one day get to the point where a client on platform X won't work with a server on platform Y anymore, which would render OpenAFS pretty much pointless.
I can offer my help reporting problems discovered while compiling and using OpenAFS on AIX 4.3.3, AIX 5.1, AIX 5.2, and one day AIX 5.3, both 32- and 64-bit. Unfortunately, I am neither a kernel nor a programming expert, so I won't be able to fix too many of those problems myself, let alone in a clean way that doesn't further mess up the code.
