-I have reports that gawk fails to pass its tests when compiled with gcc on
-the IRIX, through gcc 2.5.7. Therefore you should probably try compiling
-with cc. If gawk compiled with cc fails to pass its `make test', then I want
-to hear about it. Otherwise I will fuss at you for not reading the
-documentation.
+I'm told that gawk now compiles on the SGI with gcc without problems.
+The main issue was apparently the use of CHAR_UNSIGNED in regex.c, and
+the current regex.c now manages to figure it out on its own.
