Earlier the _bootsubprocess was supporting _aix_support during the building stage. With it being gone via #94474 and unable to find _posixsubprocess module, it fails. But I see _posixsubprocess is already build as part of the shared modules target inside the Modules directory.
_bootsubprocess was removed because it was a hack which is no longer needed for any supported platforms. I didn't realize that it is used by AIX because that platform is no longer supported by us.
I recommend that you replace the _aix_support code with autoconf -- either the entire module or at least the part that depends on subprocess.
I see there is a _read_output function in _osx_support that can be used here when subprocess is not available.
I did some testing and it seems to be working.
Uh oh!
