 Hi,

 I am trying to build octave-0.71 on a SGI Indigo workstation
 running IRIX_4.0.5. The necessary gnu software has already
 been installed.

 The first step, namely "make", goes through without any 
 problem (the f77 compilations etc.,), until it comes to
 the point where it says "make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/people/octave-0.71/s rc' and
 the g++ -c -O -g -Wall  -I. -I./../liboctave .... goes through till
 the last part , where the following happens:

g++ -c -O -g -Wall  -I. -I./../liboctave -I./../dld -I./.. -I. -I../liboctave -I
../dld -I.. -DNPSOL_MISSING=1 -DQPSOL_MISSING=1 -DFSQP_MISSING=1 -DF77_APPEND_UN

  Would you please make any suggestions to get around this problem ?

  Thanks,
