Have a look at the output of the configure script.
Does it include a warning message about IF-MIB rewrites.

>From  mibgroup/if-mib/data_access/interface.h:

#   if defined( linux )
    config_require(if-mib/data_access/interface_linux)
    config_require(if-mib/data_access/interface_ioctl)
#   elif defined( openbsd3 ) || defined( openbsd4 ) || \
    defined( freebsd4 ) || defined( freebsd5 ) || defined( freebsd6 )
|| defined (darwin)
    config_require(if-mib/data_access/interface_sysctl)
#   elif defined( solaris2 )
    config_require(if-mib/data_access/interface_solaris2)
#   else
    config_error(This platform does not yet support IF-MIB rewrites)
#   endif


That looks very much as if this particular MIB isn't supported
under AIX  (which is not a system any of the core developers
have access to, I believe).
   Patches to rectify this omission would be gratefully received.
