You could try this: http://www.crufty.net/help/sjg/bmake.html but I just found that after 2 seconds of searching with google and I have no idea if it works under AIX or not. There'd be no problem if someone wanted to take the BSD make sources and port them to AIX, but AFAIK, no one has ever wanted to do that, or at least, has never owned up to doing that in public that I've ever heard of.
