I switched, per suggestions, from gcc to cc and attempted to recompile.

I *know* the fatal error I'm getting now is IRIX related....

ld32: FATAL 12: Expecting n32 objects: /www/informix/lib/esql/libixsql.so
is o32.

What I don't understand is what it means.

As far as all the warnings, I tend to think they're less critical....
