Is this any of the issues mentioned in the MACHINES file?
SGI: IRIX 6.2, 6.3, 6.5
[Out of date.]
Should build `out-of-the-box'.
On 6.5.2, zsh malloc routines are reported not to work; also
full optimization (cc -O3 -OPT:Olimit=0) causes problems.
If using the SGI compiler, variable length arrays need to
be turned off. configure can work this out for itself if it
is passed the option --enable-cflags='-LANG:vla=off -O' (combined
with other flags if necessary).
The zpty module is not currently supported. This causes the
tests starting `Y' in the Test directory to fail, even though
the features to be tested are working.
