I tried again using gcc-2.95 and got exactly the same results.  The system()
prototype had to be modified (as before) and the build failed at first use
of "nhc98" with the "What, run() returned!"
messages.

I have sucessfully used both versions of gcc to build other execuatebles 
on this machine under IRIX6.5 so I don't think I have an underlying compiler
problem.

If there anything I can do on my end to provide some better information about
the cause of the problem, I'd be glad to help tinker around with the sources.

Thanks for the help!
Jim
