Accessing IBM AIX jfs volumes in MacOS X

Nerdy question... We had one last old and ancient IBM RS/6000 server, now defunct, whose motherboard went kaput recently, and we would like to retrieve as much user data as possible. Having extracted the HDDs, which were SCSI-3, using adapters, cables and whatnot we can connect them either to a MBP or a MP running 10.5.2. However, these HDD's (2) are partitioned and formatted in IBM's own jfs (journalled file system) format. Is there any way to read these disks on MacOS X?

PowerBook G4 15/1.25GHz, MacBook Pro 15/2.5GHz, Mac OS X (10.5.2)
