[Note: I'm taking care of Miguel in private email]
The headers that come with gcc are:
1) Only a very small subset of the full set of headers
which were preprocessed by gcc 'fix_header' utility.
2) Correspond to the OS version on which gcc was built
which may be incompatible in subtle ways with the
runtime libraries on a later OS version.
Since Miguel's Indy is (apparently) a 6.2 IRIX, possibly
without all the necessary header patches, and the gcc he
is trying was built on 5.3, I can see why he has header
problems.
Anyway, don't worry. This is being taken care of.
