depends on perl in /usr/bin/perl. 
Compiles on Cygwin after creating a link from /usr/local/bin/perl to
/usr/bin/perl. 
IRIX: if perl is installed, create the link. I remember perl is perl4 on
older IRIX systems, perhaps will not work with newer scripts.

sorry for that, but i think that it is portable. Ever seen a Unix
without 'cat'? I have a fix that uses sed.

needs external gdal library of Frank Warmerdam.
This should be asked with the configure script/get a commandline switch:
--with-gdal=/path ...

Still needs the netpbm-headers, which are _not_ included in the binary
distributions for Windows and IRIX. Had this problem too, copied over
the headers from my linux machine. 
Markus, i'll send you a tarball of the header files. Please check if
there are licensing issues when putting this on the server.

? what was the error? Perhaps unusual directory for libtiff? 
IRIX has installed an older libtiff in the X11 directory, which will not
work. Needs libtiff from the freeware dist: /usr/freeware/lib32

Is this part of the GRASS list?
