I think we tried that before and it didn't work:
http://grass.itc.it/pipermail/grass5/2002-December/004473.html

But maybe it is worth taking the issue up with the vendor as a bug. I
think our support contract with SGI here at QUB has expired, but if, as
the bug report implies, the problem is still there on the latest models,
somebody with a current support contract etc. could take it further.
