The support for SGI compiler has been removed in the master version
of the depcomp script (see commit 'v1.13-11-g35da608'), so I'm closing
these bug reports.

  Stefano

Good.  Then we could remove IRIX (make and cc) support in Automake 1.14
(that is, several months from now).  I'm opening a new bug report (with
"wishlist" severity) so that this decision won't slip through the cracks.

Regards,
  Stefano
