As Glenn pointed out:

Actually, there are three (3) mutually incompatible regimes on these SGIs.
-32 .... the old 32 bit stuff and what most imsl libs are
-n32 .... the supposedly temporary "new" 32 bit style that allows mips4
instructions
-64 .... the new 64 bit stuff
The default under irix 6.1, I believe, was -64.
The default behaviour under irix 6.2 is, I believe, -32.

Not many of us have the source IMSL license.

This will build an "n32" library. This is particularly nice if you can get
away with it since n32 code can run about as fast as 64 code with mips4
instructions. If you have the old IMSL library, then this is *old* 32 bit
and you must:
# make distclean
# export CC='cc -32'
# ./configure
# make
