Okay, I have successfully built the 7.1 RPMS and am now building for
7.2. I have not tested yet but I guess it should be okay. If the SGI
people were interested I could upload the SRPMs somewhere since I have
no space to make them available.

BTW: What do the gurus say about compiling the 7.2 RPMS on a 7.1 system.
Usually I like to build on the target system but my 7.2 is very slow. So
will the 7.2 built on 7.1 be the same? since it is using the compat-*
packages on both 7.1 and 7.2 I guess it should be okay but I'm not sure.
