As someone stuck maintaining an SGI for a user who resolutely refuses to abandon Showcase or Ribbons for IRIX, I sympathize with those cases where one simply has to get an old computer system to work.
Anyway, we don't have the relevant library file in our freeware directories either. However, the last version of UCSF Chimera to support IRIX, version 1.3, supplies libgcc_s.so.1. We are using a symbolic link libgcc_s.so --> libgcc_s.so.1 to run Coot 0.3.3 (not Coot 0.0.33, which runs only on Babbage analytical engines). Chimera 1.3 is still available from the UCSF Chimera download page: http://www.cgl.ucsf.edu/chimera/download.html as long as you are able to agree to their non-commercial software license agreement.
