Internet Explorer for Mac was a separate codebase from the Windows version.
The Unix workstation versions (HP-UX, AIX, etc.) were built with a commercial equivalent to Winelib: a library that implemented Win32 APIs on top of Unix and X11.
I have no idea how they managed to build the IE code on a compiler that wasn't MSVC.
