============================
On real Itanium systems, builds with GCC are fine. If you're using the
Intel compiler `ecc', you need:
CC=ecc ./configure && make all check install CFLAGS='-g -Drestrict='

============================
The current version of the IA-64 environment builds gawk without any problems.

============================
The Intel IA-64 emulation environment that sits on top of 32-bit Linux
has problems. Gawk does not work on it.
1. The `sgicc' compiler lies to `configure' and pretends it's gcc. But it
really isn't, and several things don't work.
2. Even if used with gcc, the executable doesn't run; somehow quoted
strings don't stay as one argument to gawk, which is, of course,
disastrous.
3. It's flaky; initially `configure' wouldn't even get past the getpgrp
test. Then later it would.
