One of the big differences is that it is also COFF based like Windows, and Aix shared objects have similar capabilities, with private by default, import files, and having the capability to let the compiler handle delay loading of specific symbols.

I used Aix 5 series quite a bit, and looking at docs it seems to still have the same capabilities.

They have even cooler capabilities - A single XCOFF library can act as both shared and static libraries
