I used to compiled every release of Exim on IRIX, just to make sure.
Unfortunately, I no longer have access to an IRIX box (the particular
system was upgraded to a different OS). However, I think 4.30 is old
enough to have been tested that way.

1. Check to see if socklen_t is defined anywhere in /usr/include/*
(recursively). Some operating systems don't seem to have it. Older ones,
I guess. Is your IRIX old?
2. Exim actually uses a macro SOCKLEN_T, which defaults to socklen_t.
The following OS are currently expected not to have socklen_t:
OS/os.h-OSF1:#define SOCKLEN_T size_t
OS/os.h-SCO:#define SOCKLEN_T int
OS/os.h-SCO_SV:#define SOCKLEN_T int
OS/os.h-Unixware7:#define SOCKLEN_T size_t
3. You can just define SOCKLEN_T in exim.h and see if that works, or add
it to OS/os.h-IRIX.
4. If you are using a modern IRIX, tell me, and I'll put it in the
standard file.
