I see. "getconf PATH" returns on your remote machine (IRIX64) just
"/usr/bin". As a result, Tramp sets your $PATH variable to
"/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin", which is not sufficient.

You should eval the following line after loading Tramp:

(add-to-list 'tramp-remote-path "/usr/bsd")

See also the discussion in the Tramp manual (info "(tramp)Remote Programs")

Best regards, Michael.
