It's been a somewhat fun port, especially in the early days of DWARF, and also playing with mips, but unfortunately, I don't have access to an IRIX machine anymore, and even if I did, I'm afraid I might not have much time to play with it except maybe for really small tasks. The same goes for other platforms, such as HP/UX. No more hardware, and very little time. And since I was one of the very few and occasional maintainers of those ports, I concluded that the ports were probably, de facto, orphaned. -- Joel
