Check out xmodem 3.9 in comp.sources.unix, volume 23.  This program, which 
also includes ymodem batch and related protocols, compiled and ran without
modification under AIX 3.1, using the SYSV alternative to getput.c.

There is also a version of zmodem in comp.sources.unix, volume 12.
This compiled successfully under AIX 3.1 with one minor modification.
The patch follows.  Change _IBMR2 to the appropriate symbol for AIX
on your 3090:
