problems with 3.7.1p1 on IRIX (again)

[Victoria Pennington]

Thanks to all who replied on this.
I find that the following definitions are needed:

SETEUID_BREAKS_SETUID
BROKEN_SETREUID
BROKEN_SETREGID

BROKEN_GETADDRINFO doesn't seem to be needed for IRIX 6.5.19.

I'm slightly concerned though that these definitions may have broken something
important, e.g. Priv separation...  Can anyone reassure me?

Thanks
Victoria
