20021015: Make error

Werner,

Use the -o32 flag to your compiler before compiling the object you are
trying to add to the gemlib.a library. You can't mix mips object versions
in an archive.

SGI has 3 types of object files that can be produced from the
compiler. These are controlled by the compiler flags -o32, -n32, -64.
The GEMPAK $CONFIGDIR/Makeinc.irix sets the compilation to the
mips-2 level of -o32 (the only version backwards compatible with IRIX5).
This is also known as the "old 32 bit" format. 

The error message you have states that you are trying to add a "new 32 object"
file to the archive (the default for the compiler is -n32).
