Symbol exports should be uptodate as I use them when I'm
hacking my win32 stuff. But that reminds me that I haven't
told people to always update the EXPSYMS files when you 
change something in the libggi tree.
But now I have. ;) So please do this!

Maybe I should have been a bit more precise.
The cp's that were used as a replacement for GNU install
have now been replaced with the config/scripts/install
script I added. The "weird" symlinks I was refering to
were stuff like this:
        ln -sf $(INST_LIB)/ggi /usr/lib$(_IRIX_ARCH)/ggi
        ln -sf $(INST_LIB)/libggi.$(DLLEXT) /usr/lib$(_IRIX_ARCH)/libggi.$(DLLEX
T)
        ln -sf $(INST_LIB)/libggi.$(DLLEXT).$(SOMAJOR) /usr/lib$(_IRIX_ARCH)/lib
ggi.$(DLLEXT).$(SOMAJOR)
        ln -sf $(INST_LIB)/libggi.$(DLLEXT).$(SOMAJOR).$(SOMINOR) /usr/lib$(_IRI
X_ARCH)/libggi.$(DLLEXT).$(SOMAJOR).$(SOMINOR)

If that's really neccesary for ALL IRIX machines, please have a look
at the HOST_LIBGGI_RULE thingy that I did for CYGWIN32 and add a
generic entry to lib/libggi/Makefile.
