Alex deVries mailed me and said he used the default configs, so I just
pressed return to all make config questions and hey presto it compiled
(except for one thing, coming back to that).

Cross-compiling environment: SGI Octane, irix 6.5, self-built cross compiler
and binutils (from CVS), linux kernel from cvs.

One little thing failed for me (people are obviously cross-compiling on
Linux in general, I guess).  There is no /bin/bash on SGI, it mostly lives
in /usr/freeware/bin.  The following patch fixed it for me (typical Perl
portability hack):
