Hi Stuart,

thanks for the bug report.

Ouch.  That's not what is supposed to happen.

It would definitely need libtool to change how it does the hardcoding on
IRIX.  I'm not sure it's worth trying that, you're the first to report
about IRIX for a long time.

I think (it was added way before my time) that was needed because the
linker would not accept a version number of 0 at the time.
Unfortunately, it is way too late to change now: that would break
building all packages that relied on their number to change when
bumping.  Generally, libtool does not promise to encode the same version
numbers in libraries on different systems---look at the various version
types that libtool uses.  This is out of necessity: the versioning
semantics differ among systems.  Users just need to get used to that a
library libtool version number is system-independent, but the
system-specific one isn't.

Hmm.  libtool at least generates non-versioned symlinks that point to
the versioned libraries.  This might be suboptimal as far as best
practice is concerned, but it doesn't seem a big issue to keep it as it
is.

Can you tell I'm really reluctant to change anything wrt. lesser-used
systems where regressions might stay hidden for a long time ...

Now to the actual testsuite failures you reported:

To me this looks like a broken g77 installation.  Is libfrtbegin
anywhere?  Hmm, maybe it is a bug that we link a shared library against
it, would have to check that.

The link-order.at failure is a known issue on this system.

The simple template test failure within the cmdline_wrap recursive run
is interesting.  I can reproduce it on IRIX 6.5, and it doesn't happen
in the normal test run (i.e., outside cmdline_wrap):
