If you run the test suite, two tests will fail (rotate and binascii),
but these are not the modules you'd expect to need on a Cray.
SGI: SGI's standard "make" utility (/bin/make or /usr/bin/make)
does not check whether a command actually changed the file it
is supposed to build. This means that whenever you say "make"
it will redo the link step. The remedy is to use SGI's much
smarter "smake " utility (/usr/bin/smake), or GNU make.
