I got gcc to compile on a 4D/20 system running 3.1rD Irix.  I haven't tried it
on our 4D/25 running 3.2.2 yet... the one problem with gcc is that it doesn't
like the mips style of symbolic reference and refuses to accept the -g flag.
I think the version was gcc-1.36 or 1.37.  I have no experience with C++ so
I didn't even try to compile that.  For what it's worth I don't USE gcc much;
only as a quick fix when porting code written specifically for that.
