Hi Sebastian,

TeX Live 5d has mips-irix6.5 binaries which are compiled for a mips-4
architecture.  To support a wider range of machines (which are
officially
supported by SGI under IRIX 6.5), the binaries should be compiled and
linked with the mips-3 architecture in mind.

As the archive stands, it will not run on my SGI Indy with the R4600
CPU.
It will probably only run on R5000, R10000 and R12000 based machines
such as the O2, Onyx etc.

Hope that helps with the production of the next TeX Live CD.
