Do you mean to cross compile for IA64 linux on IA32 linux?  If
you do, read up on how to build a cross compiler.  If you don't
have an IA64 box, forget it.  If you do, why not simply copy the
source over and rebuild?
I have not had access to Irix since 64-bits were enabled.
Ideally, you would simply read up on the compile switches and go.
