Hi Anupam, David, everyone,

Just tried an IRIX build from the CVS source.  Did have to make once
change to get it to build with 64-bit binaries (not my CC default).  I
specify -64 as a compiler option with -z-64 to runConfigure.  This adds to
flag to the compile lines but not to the link line.  I can't simply add
$(CXXFLAGS) to the IRIX link line in Makefile.incl because the CXXFLAGS
variable doesn't seem to get written to the obj/Makefile file.  This is
true in the samples tree as well.  My quick solution to verify the compile
was simply to hardcode a -64 flag to the link command in both
Makefile.incl's.

Maybe the most sensible option would be to have an extra flag in
runConfigure for SGI ABI (-a for example).  Easiest way to implement it
would be simply to append it to the CC and CXX variables (CXX becomes
"$cppcompiler $abi and CC becomes "$ccompiler $abi").  I'm happy doing
this and Emailing the new runConfigure files if this style change is
approved.

Unlike David, I didn't have problems getting SAXPrint to compile and run
(was his change commit already?) but when does run I get an output
entirely of 1s instead of XML tags!  DOMPrint gives the correct output.
This definately wasn't happening before.  Any ideas?

Regarding the relative path problem, my suspicions are that it has
something to do with IRIX's realpath command.  I'm not sure it returns
what we expect.  I'll investigate this.

Cheers,
- Matt
