When I compiled Sourcenav 4.5.2 for Irix (Irix 6.5 on an Onyx2) I had to
use the most recent gcc (version 2.95.2), SGI's CC and gcc v.2.8.1 gave
errors. 

I do not now of any SGI binaries of Sourcenav, but You can find
the latest precompiled (and install packed) gcc for SGI at
http://freeware.sgi.com/

Hope this helps you.
