You might want to look at http://gcc.gnu.org/install/binaries.html and
from there you get to http://freeware.sgi.com/ (assumimg irix 6.5 or
greater) and you could go into
http://freeware.sgi.com/index-by-alpha.html

Once there, you'll find no binutils unfortunately, but you'll find
gcc-3.0.1 which is pretty descent. Then, try again with binutils
sources, releases or cvs, and good luck.
