Yeah, it still dies in the final link on older Irix machines due to the 
command line length problem. We've almost almost fixed this using the 
libtool incremental linking and objectlist passing, but there is still a 
problem since the "echo" command used when making the objectlist file is 
too long.

For all the gory details, you can look at:
