I think we should try to get this fixed in upstream. If there's an IRIX
work-around, then it shuold be a compile-time decision and only enabled
on IRIX, right?
It won't help the problem in the short term, as fixed/updated glib would
first have to dissipate through their next release, get picked up by
distributions, etc. - but sooner or later somebody else will run into
the same trap, with glib disabling POLERR on Linux and thus destroying
quite a bit of capability the operating system offers.
