There have been several reports of GCC on SGI conflicting with
the standard libraries. If using SGI's compiler is an option,
you could try that.

Another thing you could try is, in gtkcolorsel.h, changing

#include <math.h>
#include "gtkcolorsel.h"
#include "gtkhbbox.h"

to 

#include "gtkcolorsel.h"
#include "gtkhbbox.h"
#include <math.h>

Perhaps things will behave if math.h is included _after_
stdlib.h?
