No, you don't need to recreate them. Have you looked at the 
nessusd.messages logfile for the second scan to see whether 
aix_maintenance_level.nasl was actually run?
Btw, the description for the plugin was changed on April 6th (Revision 
1.10). Is it possible you're looking for specific text from the old 
version of the plugin?
