Interesting. Given that, shouldn't PEP 11 be updated with that change? Seems to me that PEP 11 only documents platforms with *official support*, so is AIX officially supported? The comment in the issue would indicate it is not officially supported

AIX is not officially supported. We have tried to be helpful and add/remove things over the years related to AIX (we used to have an external contributor who actively tried to keep AIX supported), but we don't guarantee things work since there is no core dev available to try and keep AIX running.

, but it _is_ listed here: https://pythondev.readthedocs.io/platforms.html#python-platforms

That is not an official Python website.
