Summary: IRIX 6 linker options

Initial Comment:
On IRIX 6, ./configure adds "-n32" to CFLAGS but links
with "-32".

The two ABIs are not compatible, so the link fails. 
"-n32" is the recommended ABI for IRIX 6; the attached
patch to tcl.m4 changes LDFLAGS to use -n32 as well.

(P.S.: with the exception of the above, configure;
make; make install still works flawlessly on IRIX 5 & 6
as of today's CVS HEAD.)

(P.P.S: the same change should probably be made to
tk/unix/tcl.m4 as well).
