  Does anyone on here have experience of getting gcc going on a machine
running IRIX which has NO compiler?  I was wondering if I could either

  a) Transfer precompiled binaries and libraries to the machine using
ftp

  b) somehow using nfs mounted files use the C compiler on another IRIX
to build gcc on the new machine.

  Any ideas would be most welcome since I've seen people do very bad things
to machines trying to get compilers working on them (including partially
copying over the run-time libraries using ftp meaning that there wasn't
enough of the machine left to actually boot).
