Binaries are binaries. SMIT (actually installp) simply ensures
that you have the proper pre-requisites (AIX header files installed, AIX
libraries installed, etc.).
If you untar the file into the proper directory (not just anywhere
on your system) and include GCC in your PATH, it should work. If it does
not work, make sure that you have the other AIX filesets installed for
application development.
If you have any further questions, please ask them publically, not
privately to me.
