as problem on sgi

[Sami Romdhani <rodhams@westminster.ac.uk>]

Hi,

I have a problem with as on an SGi Octane workstation running Irix 6.5.
I compiled my code with both egcs-2.91.60 and gcc 2.8.1. It compiles
perfectly well on linux and solaris, however when I try to compile it on
SGi, I get such errors :

as: Error: /var/tmp/cca006yO.s, line 12348: Truncating token:

And it goes on, and on, and on ...

gas is not installed on SGi Irix 6.5, I use instead the SGi's as. Indeed
I read many times on mailing list that the as of Irix 6 and above should
work with egcs and gcc. (And actually I did not find any gas version for
Irix).

I would *really* like to be able to compile my code on irix, so any help
would be greatly appreciated.

Not that some code would compile and some other wouldn't.
