Problems compiling Samba-TNG for IRIX

Is it supported? GNU C and MIPSpro C (the one IRIX libc compiled with:-)
pass (short) structures in incompatible ways which used to make samba
fail miserably (at run-time). See
http://gcc.gnu.org/install/specific.html#mips*-sgi-irix6 for further
details. I can't see no reason why it can't be resolved by e.g. linking
with a module which overloads offended libc calls, fixes arguments up
and then passes control to the real libc functions, but was it actually
done?
