Oh, it's passed alright, but no command flag is passed.  The attached
patch (which is currently in master and will therefore be part of the
next pre-release) fixes it.

Cheers,
Richard

commit 6475b64978083750018db90c60f4df142aa2e28f
Author: Richard Levitte <levitte@openssl.org>
Date:   Thu Feb 15 22:38:24 2018 +0100

    AIX: make sure that the arflags value includes the command letter (r)
    
    In previous OpenSSL versions, this letter was part of the make
    variable AR.  However, following the usual convention (read: GNU),
    this letter is supposed to be part of ARFLAGS.
