Hi!
Unfortunately I am unable to compile a 32-bit perl under Irix!
I trip over the hints and the fact that there are actually 2 32-bits
formats under SGI ('n32' and 'o32'), and I don't seem to be able to find
a whole set of all the libraries needed by perl in one or the other...
Sorry about that,
Philippe
