Booting AIX 5.2 gives me 

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                Welcome to AIX.
                       boot image timestamp: 70:80 15/C0
                 The current time and date: 20:40:45 04/04/2011
                number of processors: 1    size of memory: 2047Mb
boot device: cd:\ppc\chrp\bootfile.exe
Validation failed: the "/rtas" device node does not exist.
EXIT


So at least for earlier versions of AIX there are still missing firmware
bits.
