Wow! You have 6.5.4m!?! Brave man! :)

I have a mixture between 6.5.14m to 6.5.27m. My main amanda server is
6.5.19f but I'm having strange problems trying to configure on this
host (configure coredumps with a memory error -- seen this before and
a reboot seems to fix it).

I patched and put your #defines in and using either gcc 3.3.2 or
native irix C compiler seems to compile fine on a 6.5.14m host. I will
install and do further tests tomorrow...

thanks jf
