I plan to yes. Because this is mostly taking place on the Tezro and I've neither finished building Git nor Game of Trees (the BSD version of Git) I just haven't yet had time to move it off and commit to an IRIXCE repo.

FYI, here's the illumos-gate version running on IRIX:

Only real issue? it requires some version of gettext! other than that it's actually pretty damn good. 

It's a good fallback in case my work on rebuilding the OpenBSD one fails.

Oh shit. Well that didn't last long. Scuttling OpenBSD's diff then, plan b it is! MFW I see impossible to port functions: 



Edit: The real issue isn't warn or anything like that, but pledge(). Pledge is a major framework used by OpenBSD, and I shoulda coulda woulda anticipated it.

For those interested in trying my patch and diff util - here's the binaries:

Due to me being lazy, you do need Mozilla installed to use diff. If you want to know why, it's because I ghetto rigged libintl.so from mozilla to the diff command so I didn't have to port gettext from Solaris yet! Excuse the ghetto/ratchetness of such an oversight!

I have to refactor the makefiles for this and create a new irixce branch to bring them into the fold. That may be for another day because I'm pretty under the weather.

Here's a working version that instead requires gettext and expat from freeware. It should work fine if you install those.
