I've had no trouble with it, and all I use is gcc. The last one I built
it with, egcs 1.1.1, worked just great. Compiles and runs. In fact,
under IRIX 6.5, I didn't even have to disable the asm stuff. I've been
building SSH under all sorts of IRIX versions (5.3, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4.1, 6.5)
and platforms (r4k, r5k, r10k), all with gcc of some recent version
(2.7.2+, 2.8+, egcs 1.0.2+).
I built it like this:
% cd ssh-1.2.26
% mkdir r10k-irix-6.5
% cd r10k-irix-6.5
% setenv CFLAGS "-I/opt/security/include"
% setenv LIBS "-L/usr/local/lib -L/opt/security/lib -lwrap -lbind"
% ../configure \
--prefix=/opt/security \
--with-rsaref \
--with-rsh=/usr/bsd/rsh \
--with-etcdir=/opt/security/etc \
--program-transform-name='s/^s/r/' \
--disable-scp-stats \
--disable-all-scp-stats \
--with-libwrap \
--srcdir=..
% sudo make install
And poof, all there.
