Yes, I've got rn/news/nntp running on RT/AIX 2.2.1 (also on 2.1.2 and 2.2).
I didn't encounter any major problems doing this (the news software folks
did a good job making it portable).  I recall having a small problem with
the Configure script (I had to write a 1 line shell script to tell the rn kit
that the RT isn't a pdp11).
