Yes, we have gcc and g++ working here at Locus ( not in any "official" way,
just the spare time hacking of some of us ). What you need to do is get
the latest version of both gcc and g++ (1.36 and 1.36.1 I believe). Build
gcc first, it actually has configuration files specifically for AIX/PS2.
You just run config.gcc with the argument aix386 or some such and away you
go. Then after building and installing gcc, use it to make g++, I don't
think the config.g++ shell script has the aix option in it, but its a
simple matter to copy the relevant portions out of the gcc script, link
the config files and then build. I was not the one who built it here, but
as far as I know configuring is all there really is to it.

Good luck!
