After some digging, it seems that gcc is using some custom header files
in /usr/freeware/lib/gcc-lib/mips-sgi-irix6.5/3.3/include/ as first match.

This files seem to be generated by fixincludes and some seem to be non
working (I.e. unistd.h is empty). Moving away unistd.h and stlib.h does
the trick and postgresql compiles without any patch.

template1=# SELECT VERSION();
                               version
---------------------------------------------------------------------
 PostgreSQL 8.2.3 on mips-sgi-irix6.5, compiled by GCC gcc (GCC) 3.3
(1 row)

gmake check also runs without any failure.
