OK, now I have a better idea of what you need.  

On the SunOS 5.8 sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10 platform with gcc 2.95.3, the
two flags add up.

Patched:

  OPT=             -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes
  BASECFLAGS=     

Un-patched:

  OPT=            -DNDEBUG -g -O3 -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes

I'll let you know if I have any luck on the IRIX box.  May god have
mercy on my soul.
