    Well, I reported (and supplied patches for) the problems with the irix5 
    port and will download and install another version once I hear these 
    have been applied.
    
    I haven't seen any comments as to whether the strange regression test
    outputs are significant...
    
    I think it's difficult to say we fully support irix6 because of the
    bug in Irix ld. However, the Irix-specific FAQ does detail the
    workaround for this, so I guess it's semi-supported.

    p.s. Bruce, the links from the main FAQ on the Web site to the machine-
    specific ones are still broken - the 'FAQ' should be in lower case.

    OK, I have updated my FAQ to use lowercase names for the files.  That
    seems to fix it.
