I'm using emacs for about 20 years and now I have a problem I never had:
The new installed emacs 25.1 from bull does not start his gui (AIX 7.2).
Of course, I have installed all needed packages including emacs-X11-25.1-1.aix6.1.ppc.rpm and other X11 programs are working
Some library might be missing. To diagnose the problem try to see
the options used at compilation time and look at what it says for the
x-toolkit
C-h v system-configuration-options
M-x display-about-screen
The best is that you compile emacs yourself
wget
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/emacs/emacs-25.3.tar.gz
tar xzvf emacs-25.3.tar.gz
cd emacs-25.3
./configure --with-x-toolkit=KIT --prefix=/usr/local ; make ; make install
KIT one of: yes or gtk, gtk2, gtk3, lucid or athena, motif, no
Also try --without-xft if you cannot make it display.
If that doesn't work downgrade to 24.x
