Has anyone successfully built xdbx (2.1) on an IRIS? I have tried building
it on a 4D/320 running 3.3 but get "alloca" listed as an undefined global.
Any suggestions?

Earlier I posted an "xdbx" question about alloca/xmalloc on the Iris. Thanks
to those who have pointed me to the "emacs" code. Now that xdbx builds
properly on the Iris, it won't run because it cannot open any "ptys". For
communication purposes, xdbx opens a tty/pty pair. However, because ptys
are a BSD thing (I think) they are not available in the strict SYS5
implementation of unix on the Iris. Am I out of luck or is there a work-around
for this as well?

IRIX has pseudo-ttys. Refer to pty(7M) for details.
