Well, that is at least a beginning and it gives hope, that similar 
files are somewhere around. I think a 6.5.22-src with support of
machines 
like Indigo, Indy and Octane would be the thing covering most SGI
enthusiast's hopes as later machines may not be likely to get the
popolarity then these.

Never heared of this and I surely will check it out in the next
