Just a warning in that I doubt that GCC will solve your problems.  You will
also need an assembler and a linker, which GNU can provide (if you're not
running Irix 5).  But you will also need a C library and include files, and
the last time that I checked, the GNU C library didn't support the SGI.  

It'll definitely be possible to port glibc to the SGI, but I wouldn't count
on it happening soon.  In the meantime, use of GCC will entail having the
SGI development environment around.
