Hi, Matthew.
I replaced the libffi the newer of GCC 4.5.0, which contains hotfix to work
correctly on mips. Also, I deleted the line with RETURN in the file
smalloc.c. I also corrected one file in wxxt (the compiler does not
understand (a, b. ..) and I changed it to (a, b, ...)). Also received
specific for SGI error when compiled mred, related link errors libjpeg or
libpng. It was necessary to add to Makefile ldflag "-lC". Following these
actions, "Make" passed without problems errors and comments. But "make
install" I received an new error again:

This happens with both "- disable-foreign", and without.
