I was unable to duplicate the problem here, where for our IRIX 5.3
platform

    $ uname -a
    IRIX dana 5.3 11091811 IP20 mips

Everything ran fine, including "make test".

After you untar and uncompress the alpha release, the result of ls on
the source file add.c should be something like

    $ ls -l nctest/add.c
    -rw-rw-r--    1 russ     usystem     5658 Aug 19 16:10 nctest/add.c

Is it possible you ran out of disk space during "make test", so that
there was no space left to store the compiled "add.o" file?
