Cross-compilation of c programs cannot take place on the SGI
IRIX machines in Studenterhallen. Cross-compilation has to take place on
a Sun Solaris machine. Local names of Sun machines can be obtained
with the command hosts arch='sun4u'. Use rlogin with the name
of a Sun machine to get access to a machine where the
cross-compilation can take place. Download is performed from the SGI
serial port /dev/ttyd2.
