 | It seems as cm/midi/sgi/sgi-midi.c breaks somewhere on an Irix 5.3 here,
 | at least I cant load sgi-midi.so while building CM.

Friends don't let friends use 5.3 for MIDI.  sgi-midi.so is a 6.2 binary
and hence does not run on 5.3 as binaries are forward, but not backwards
compatible.  MIDI is terribly broken under 5.3.  However, if you really
want to try, get rid of the mdRegister and mdUnRegister calls.  But by
all means try to upgrade to 6.2
