Hi,

Please enlighten me, is it standard practice under IRIX to have /bin as a symlink?

Hi,

Please enlighten me, is it standard practice under IRIX to have /bin as a symlink?

Yes. Since the standard IRIX installation combines root and /usr,
/bin points to /usr/bin and /usr/bin contains most of the usual commands (or symlinks to commands) used by non-privileged users.
