Hi Joseph,

Your OS is older than the one I'm testing on, but I still think your

gcc installation is not quite right somehow. Have you tried compiling

with the SGI compiler?

I can't afford an SGI compiler for the price they were asking, I did have access to one years ago.
My OS is IRIX 6.5.22, the limit for the Indigo, I do have an Octane 6.5.26 I think but that should not make much difference I think

Probably, I should update gcc also, perhaps you can advise on any specific configuration to enable / disable etc.

I note that you are using gcc4.2.3, I'll upgrade and see, 4.3.0 is the latest stable version. I'll try that.

Here's what I see:
