This is sorta like trying to get a job without a experience and trying to get
experience without a job!

I have a SGI Indigo 2 running Irix5.3.  By default SGI machines are shipped
without a c compiler.  I guess most of SGI user are not programmers, including
myself.  I have obtained a copy of gcc from the net but can't build cause I
have no c compiler.  Someone mentioned that if you have a networked system with
c compiler on it, you can build a cross compiler.  How do I do this?  I have a
sun running solaris2.3 on the network.
