Jeff,
I'm getting new bootstrap failures on mips-sgi-irix6.2 (using cc
for stage1) caused by the o32/n32 incompatibility (already discussed
begining with http://www.cygnus.com/ml/egcs/1998-Dec/0044.html).

I believe this error is caused by recent patches like this one.

In Dec I posted a fix for this which rebuilds libiberty at each
bootstrap stage and which also addressed the host/build libiberty
incompatibility.
(http://www.cygnus.com/ml/egcs-patches/1998-Dec/0277.html)
My plan had been to postpone cleaning out libiberty
redundancies until this had been addressed. However now that Irix6 is
breaking again, this issue becomes more important to me. So can we
consider the above patch now?
Thanks,
