Subject:    -5- Where's the C compiler?

  IRIX does not include a C compiler. Buy the Iris Developer's Option,
  which includes SGI's C compiler. Yes, it is expensive. Ignore
  /usr/cpu/sysgen/root/usr/bin/cc; it's only for rebuilding the kernel.
  Don't bother with gcc; it is useless without the libraries and header
  files in the IDO. (Should you have IDO and still think you need gcc,
  see the hints under PORTING below.)
