The compatibility between AIX 370 1.2 and AIX PS/2 1.2 is very, very good.
Why? Because they are built from the same source tree.  Virtually every
program (including the kernel) comes from the exact same place.
Notable exceptions are the compiler (and related components) and some
very specific 386 or 370 tools (DOS merge on 386en only and VM/CMS interaction
tools for the 370).  Hope that clarifies things.  BTW, the same holds
true for AIX 1.2.1.
