There are a few common locations for CA bundles hard-coded in the configure
script, and it could be that AIX doesn't use any of them. Where is the AIX
cert bundle located?

This statement implies that AIX doesn't even have a working CA cert bundle,
in which case how do you expect configure to respond? It should just
use a default location and if it's still empty at run-time, then curl simply
can't validate certs.
