Issue #16081 has been updated by Robert Welgan.
I did some testing on my AIX machine and I realized my thinking was wrong: I
needed to change the logic in the architecture.rb file:
thewell:facter rwelgan$ diff architecture.rb architecture.rb.orig
7,8c7
< # On non-AIX IBM, OpenBSD, Linux and Debian's kfreebsd, use the
hardwaremodel fact.
< # On AIX get the type value from lsattr -El proc0
---
> # On AIX, OpenBSD, Linux and Debian's kfreebsd, use the hardwaremodel fact.

< when /IBM*/
< case Facter.value(:operatingsystem)
< when "AIX"
< arch = Facter::Util::Resolution.exec('lsattr -El proc0 -a type')
< if arch =~/type\s(\S+)\s/
< $1
< end
< else
< model
< end
This yields:
Good output:
l488pp056_pub[/opt/puppet/pup-puppet/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter] > facter
architecture
PowerPC_POWER7
l488pp056_pub[/opt/puppet/pup-puppet/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter] > facter
hardwaremodel
IBM,9179-MHB
When the hardwaremodel fact contains AIX, then get the architecture from the
lsattr -El proc0 command.
