What AIX version? Do you create a unique curl handle in each thread?

--enable-thread is a default option and only means that the configure will
check for thread-safe versions of some standard functions.

Can you show us a small example source code that fails for you?

We have fixed some minor thread-safe issues with AIX in libcurl since 7.11.1,
but I don't think they are that likely to *always* cause problems such as you
describe.
