You'll need to install the "AIX Toolbox for Linux Applications" which 
essentially is installing the rpm.rte fileset, which provides rpm.

Then there's a whole bunch of rpms (including gcc) on this site...

... as far as I know you have to resolve the dependencies manually. But 
I haven't tried to set up some kind of PKG_PATH equivalent for this.

I've heard that there could be issues using GCC on AIX. If your system 
has xlC its supposedly better off. However I've never had an opportunity 
to try that out as it costs a good chunk of $$.

Hope that helps...
