Thanks a lot! For those who might have the same problem, I compiled
Mesa 3.4 and the 0.10-pre1 tarball as Tom told me and it works!
By the way, I was just trying to view a "hello world" written from
scratch on a SGI. I didn't patch/recompile ivview yet and the version
included in the rpms doesn't work on my system, but it has already
been identified and solved I think.
Regards.
