That's annoying. I have just checked in a small change to the link
forcing mechanism, for Christof's port to Digital Mars C++, that now
explicitly sets the exported variable used for forcing the link to
zero. I don't suppose that happens to fix it for the SGI compiler?

If that doesn't help (and I expect it probably won't), all I can
suggest is that you try to track down some other way to force the
linkage on the SGI compiler. If you come up with something that isn't
too painful, I'll include it in the distribution.

Cheers,

Duncan.
