I think I agree. I don't know why they are filtered. Did you
have a look in the .log file on the smoke directory?

Can you come up with a patch to the appropriate hint file
(hints/irix_6.sh) to deal with this?

See hints/aix.sh and hints/hpux.sh for examples
(also bsdos, darwin, dec_osf, freebsd, linux, openbsd, and
solaris_2 have code dealing with this, but I know Irix most
resembles HP-UX in these cases)

Same here, but I'd prefer second opinions from other people
with Irix-6.5 access
