You've identified a bug in the INSTALL document for IRIX64 6.2.  Under
the "IRIX64 binnie 6.2 03131016 IP26" heading, where we had

    --------

    CC=/bin/cc -64
    CFLAGS="-O -woff 1110,1167" # warnings 1110 & 1167 are lex(1)-induced
    CPPFLAGS=-DNDEBUG
    FC=/bin/f77 -64
    FFLAGS=-O
    CXX=/bin/CC

it should instead be:

    --------

    CC='/bin/cc -64'
    CFLAGS="-O -woff 1110,1167" # warnings 1110 & 1167 are lex(1)-induced
    CPPFLAGS=-DNDEBUG
    FC=/bin/f77 -64
    FFLAGS=-O
    CXX=/bin/CC

(quotes are needed around the CC value).  A similar error appears above
this under "IRIX chevy 6.2 03131015 IP22", where

    --------

    CC=/bin/cc -n32
    CFLAGS=-O -DNDEBUG
    FC=/bin/f77 -n32
    FFLAGS=-O
    CXX=/bin/CC

should be replaced by

    --------

    CC='/bin/cc -n32'
    CFLAGS=-O -DNDEBUG
    FC=/bin/f77 -n32
    FFLAGS=-O
    CXX=/bin/CC

I've just tried the change for -64, and it seems to work fine.

Thanks for reporting the problem!
