It's the mips pro C compiler (courtesy Irix). I've been battling with it
for 2 weeks now. Since the machines are new I've not been allowed to
experiment with the O2s. My workaround is to get a PC and put Linux on it.
Out here it's working great and it's taking everyone by storm (they want
to put Linux on all machines now, even on the SUN/UltraSparc!). Probably
removing mips pro might help, but I've not tried it. I've spoken to the
person at freeware@sgi.com and he will put up PostgreSQL-7.0 (not 7.0.2)
this month at his site.
