Certainly this applies to SGI's MIPSPro 7.41 results, where I would
add the following:

-demangle -dont_warn_unused

on the linker flags and:

-quiet_prelink (N.B. not as the man page suggests -quiet_prelinker)

on the CC flags, I'd probably also add the following to the ignored
warnings -woff 1234 to disable the 'Access control is not specified
("private" by default)' warnings.

helps with the regression logs at least.
