It builds and all the tests work fine on our R10000/IRIX64 6.1, so it may
be something in the change from 6.1 to 6.2?  We don't have a 6.2 platform
here, so I'll have to compare the output you sent with what we get on 6.1 to
see if I can spot a difference.  Thanks for sending all the output from
configure.

One difference I spot immediately is that "configure" run on IRIX 6.1
doesn't find the "c89" compiler, so uses "cc".  Is "c89" new with 6.2?
