Again, supported and works are two different things. AIX is the only
platform I'm missing, and my RS/6000 machine should be here next week!
Then testing can begin.

I'm helping out the OpenVAS team and I intend on getting it to work on
AIX, Solaris, Gentoo, and for some odd reason, IRIX (hey, I like it).

Summary: keep poking it. Read the config/failure logs and don't give up.
That is the fun of it all.
