Installing Postgresql in Irix

From

Hello friends,
 
I am in trouble again...not exactly... my dependence on postgresql is increasing day by day !!!
Now I am planning to install postgresql 7.4 at client site with IRIX 6.4/6.5 (clustered). I got a little bit shaky after I read quite a few mails in Postgresql archive reporting failed installation (and something wrong with gcc). Do I need to bother about it ?
 
Thanks

According to the "supported platforms" list, PG 7.4 has been tested
successfully on IRIX 6.5.20 with vendor's cc.  I do seem to recall
something about problems with gcc on that platform, so possibly you'd
want to avoid gcc.
