I believe IBM sells a software 8086/MSDOS emulator for AIX3 on the 
RISC-6000, and a full-blown Dos-Merge exploiting the virtual-8086
hardware mode of the 386 for AIX PS/2.  The former should do for a
very occasional need for DOS applications, the latter should be more
appropriate if the need is not all that occasional.
