Back in 1994, I experienced the joys of IRIX's C compiler segfaulting on a conforming ANSI C program. When I transformed it into a conforming pcc program, that made it segfault, too.
I hope their compiler has got a lot better, since.
There was also the lovely trick they used to do of shipping with undocumented, unpassworded shell accounts.
Mmmm. More recently, 1999 or so, we got an IRIX machine from SGI which, out of the box, offered login access to the unpassworded "guest" account over telnet.

IRIX - nice filesystem, shame about... well, everything else, really.
