I have tried to compile mySQL-3.22.30 on an SGI Irix 5.3 system as I cannot find any binary distribution for that platform. (We have a number of old SGI Indy workstations still in use which require an uneconomic hardware upgrade to take them from Irix 5.3 to Irix 6.5.) The Irix 6.3 binary distribution works fine on our newer Irix 6.5 workstations here (which is where I'm running the mysqlbug from, hence mention of gcc 2.8.1 etc. rather than the gcc 2.7.2 of the Irix 5.3 workstations), but the compile/link from source produced:

Since the MIT threads package seems to have configuration for Irix 5.2 (but not 5.3) I thought this should work.

If I can't build from the source, has anyone got an Irix 5.* binary distribution we could have?
