IRIX 6.2: problems installation gcc and PostgreSQL with c/g++

From

Hi all,

my question:
------------
- does anybody know what is needed for the installation of gcc and
PostgreSQL with g/c++ on an IRIX 6.2 including the stuff for IRIX 6.2
itself and how to do it.

and

- if you have the binaries, please answer too.


description of the situation:
-----------------------------
at this moment I have gcc installed without g/c++, but I want to
reinstall gcc, now with g/c++. Therefore I downloaded libstdc++ and tried.
But installation went wrong with errors concerning old and new 32-bits
objects, abi (during the installation-process there magically sprang a
directory 'mabi=64' into existance) etcetera.

After this I want to reinstall PostgreSQL with gcc and g/c++, because
some numeric datatypes are not working (e.g. int8) or giving notices
about casting to a different datatype (e.g. float8).

I'm not very technically oriented, so my one and only idea is that the
problems have something to do with something internal and with missing
files or with configure/make-options I have to set while installing.
And maybe the datatype-problems with PostgreSQL will also be solved after
a correct installation of gcc.....

system:
-------
IRIX mars 6.2 03131015 IP22
mips-abiversion: 1.2

current software:
-----------------
gcc: 2.8.1
libstdc++:    2.8.1
PostgreSQL:    6.4.2



Thanks,

Jelle.
