I see your point, but the versions are different, depending on which information center you ask.

Honestly, I don't think this is an exact science. Some programs from other AIX releases may work. And some programs from AIX 4.3 might not work on V5R1. It really depends on what the programs do. I think AIX 4.3 is just the closest match for V5R1.

V5R1 Information Center claims to support AIX 4.3.3.
V5R2 & V5R3 Information Centers claim that V5R1 supports 4.2 and 4.3
V5R4+ claims that V5R1 supports 4.3
