If Irix 6.5 defines __sgi and the patch _adds_ "defined(__sgi)" I wouldn't have to worry too much, but would replacing "defined(sgi)" with the double-underscore version make somebody who added "defined(sgi)" in the first place cry, if it was done for different version of Irix that does define "sgi" (worse yet, but not "__sgi")? Another natural question is if defining _BSD_TYPES everywhere has negative effects on somebody else's platforms, but that is what people on different platforms will have to apply this patch, test, and report success or breakage. Help from the list audience is appreciated.
