I worked with a skilled developer going by the handle EasyMode to bring this to IRIX.

What it does:

Provide it a path and an SGI-style spec file, it'll read it, then traverse the path to acquire all the files. It then writes the idb. Anything it can't infer, it hands over to a rejections file. These should either be manually added or put in via swpkg(1)
