Alas I don't have direct access to this system, so I'm relying on build logs. > Of course IRIX 6.5 has 'strdup'.

It was configured with: CC=c89 CFLAGS="-D_POSIX_SOURCE -I/usr/local/include" CXX=CC CXXFLAGS="-D_POSIX_SOURCE -I/usr/local/include" LDFLAGS="-Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/libn32 -L/usr/local/libn32" Is there some ./configure output that would help understand what the problem is? /Simon
