I agree that the IRIX kernel is horribly obfuscated, however it still contains valuable information, and in theory can be decoded. I strongly suspect this is where harold got much of his information, and if one is demented enough, and has enough time much can be learned from it. Curiousity, what is your goal in asking this? There is no magic answer, and it will probably take you months to years if you want to port something useing just the irix headers.
