+-	the 'install' command in IRIX is not compatible with

+	'bsdinst' command that is compatible, and which this

+
+	Otherwise, you will need to get a version of 'install'
+	that is compatible, and update the file
+	port/irix/Makefile.set to point to the right place.
+
+	(Install comes from the X11 distribution, and is also
+	available from the 'sh-utils' GNU package as install-sh,
+	among other places.)
+
+-	After IRIX 6.3, the /bin/sh on IRIX is actually a korn
+	shell, so if you use any of the ksh special variables
+	(like CDPATH), you may encounter problems with make.
+	Try unsetting these variables (e.g. `make CDPATH=""`).
+
+-	At least in IRIX 5.3 and 6.2, 'make' won't work with a
+	a shell that's not bourne-shell compatible as your
+	"SHELL" environment variable.  Try running make with
+	SHELL set to /bin/sh (e.g. `make SHELL=/bin/sh`).
