Hi,

I observed the same problem when I compiled PVM3.3.11 for a SGI O2. 
A simple solution is to replace the compiler flag "-64" by "-32" in 
$(PVM_ROOT)/conf/SGI64.def. The generated 32 bit binaries should be 
runable on a really 64 bit machine, too.
Another way (maybe the best) is to change to PVM3.4.0 which is not 
confused of the different SGI architectures, 
actually :)

Greetings,
	Claus
