A MUCH (much, much, much) safer option is to install the GD libraries 
yourself and compile Nagios successfully on your AIX server.

Say I was feeling malicious, I might compile the binary for the AIX 
platform but include something nasty like a memory leak or something 
that deletes random files. Accepting binaries compiled by strangers is 
just like accepting candy from strangers - fraught with danger!
