bash 2.05b doesn't compile on IRIX 5.3

[jason andrade]

hi,

just thought i would let you know that i cannot get bash to compile
"out of the box" on irix 5.3 with the SGI IDO installed.

i cannot try gcc at this point as that doesn't compile on irix 5.3
either.

the error i get is:

i can make an account available on the box if anyone wants to look at
this (it is a semipublic opensource porting/testing server..)
