I suggest you alter the files
    src/runtime/Kernel/mark.h
    include/HsFFI.h
Where there is a conditional inclusion of <stdint.h>, change the
condition to make the IRIX version include <inttypes.h> instead.
For instance

#    if defined(__sun__) || defined(__FreeBSD__) || defined(__OpenBSD__)
#      include <inttypes.h>
#    else
#      include <stdint.h>
#    endif

could become something like

#    if defined(__sun__) || defined(__FreeBSD__) || defined(__OpenBSD__) || defined(__sgi)
#      include <inttypes.h>
#    else
#      include <stdint.h>
#    endif

If this still does not solve the problem, you could try using the
Cygwin-like branch of the conditional instead.
