I built it with gcc-2.8.1 using the "build CC=gcc sgi" command.  It went
right through, once I got over the hurdle of getting gcc  :)

For the wu-2.4.2-academ[BETA-18-VR15] there used
to be IRIX 6.x binaries on the ftp server.  Although
there is a file "binaries/sgi/irix/irix62-ftpbin.tar.gz"
in the new wu-2.5.0 site, it doesn't contain any wu-ftp
binaries.

TIA,

David,

Get the current release 2.5.0 from wu-ftpd.org.  Things have been updated
significantly - and several potential security issues resolved.  It does
have separate support for the later irix 6.x releases.
