I suppose it was only a matter of time...

As far as I can tell, the problem was that access.c should have been set
up to use SIOCGIFCONF as a native ioctl on IRIX. I'm *assuming* this is
the right thing to do, I haven't had time to check this. It certainly
*seems* to work. Here's the patch; am I right in assuming this change
should be percolated into the XFree sources?

As an aside, 3.3.2 seems to have fixed my Nedit problems as well...
