IRIX quirks?

Hi
I'm puzzled by a few warnings caused by the MIPRPro compiler on 64bit IRIX
6.5.22 as provided by Tor Arntsen.
I found some IRIX 5.3 man pages online that indicated that the prototypes IRIX
provides for the following functions don't match the ones that Linux provides:
* writev()
* send()
* recv()
It would be interesting to know if this is still the case for more recent
versions of IRIX, as that would explains a few warnings.
I compared the protos with "The Single UNIX Specification, Version 2", and it
made this TSUSV2-compliant table:
function Linux IRIX
-------- ----- ----
writev no yes
send yes no
recv yes no
(The differences are all usage of ssize_t instead of int and vice versa.)
