XEmacs 21.0-b63 was successfully built on: SGI O2 R5k workstation running IRIX 6.5 SGI X11R6.3 server libraries as listed in the Installation file, included below (tried compiling with neXtaw 0.5.1, but was strangely ugly...?) otherwise compiled out of the box using SGI's cc compiler (optimization and debugging flags turned on as below) I've been using it daily for about a week, including Calc, Calendar, Tuareg mode (mode for Objective Caml/Objective Labl programming languages) among other things. Only major problem is that tar-mode is wholly and utterly broken for all tar files (all known good tars), as previously cited by another report. -- John the 'Installation' file from the build follows: -- cut here ---------------------------------------- uname -a: IRIX gaia 6.5 05190004 IP32 ./configure '--without-gcc' '--with-gnu-make' '--cflags=-O2 -OPT:Olimit=0 -g3 -I/usr/local/include' '--site-runtime-libraries=/usr/local/lib32:/usr/lib32:/lib32' '-ldflags=-woff 84,85 -L/usr/local/lib32' '--dynamic=yes' '--gung-ho' XEmacs 21.0-b63 "Pyrenean63" configured for `mips-sgi-irix6.5'.
