Xerces-C++ uses GNU autotools as a build environment for UNIX-like system. So it seems that they don't support Irix very well, probably because not many people use/have access to it. So if you want to take it further, then the best place would probably be the automake mailing list. The other thing you may want to try is to make sure you have the xargs utility installed. That's what is normally used to deal with long argument lists.
