Not only did SGI support DWARF, but my understanding is that 6.2 dropped ELF support. In truth, SGI didn't really do ELF. They had an MCOFF section inside the ELF binary, so pure ELF routines couldn't extract the entire symbol table. You had to root around in the MCOFF section to find 99% of your symbols. Jon Doran
