  Somewhere in the INSTALL file or in one of the README.xxx files
you will find that you need "gas" in order to use "-g" on IRIX and
(I think) HP-UX. Get binutils-2.5.2, build "gas" and then rebuild
gcc with "configure --gas" (or so). You also want "gdb", as
our "dbx" and WorkShop used to dislike the gnu debugging information.
