Has anyone managed to compile gnuchess on an SGI? If so: how? 
I've had little success in trying to compile it under IRIX 5.3.

I downloaded the sources and did the normal configure, make stuff using
cc (as opposed to gcc). Initially I got the error message about FIONREAD
so tried the changes recommended in the FAQ. All the binaries seg
faulted at this stage. I also tried loads of other things such as using
-oldcpp, -acpp, no -O2, using gcc with and without the -traditional-cpp
option and always got binaries which seg faulted (the FIONREAD message
went when I had the changed dspcom.c and gnuan.c files).

xboard compiled easily and with no problems at all.

Any help or a compiled binary would be very useful. 

Thanks

Oliver Kiddle
