I don't know much about the Alpha and GPC related bugs, but I did some work
to build Redhat RPM's for GPC. As you may know, Redhat Linux is available
for iX86, sparc and alpha. The GCC sources from redhat come with a number of
patches to build on the alpha. Anybody who wants to build GPC for
Linux/alpha will have to apply these, probably. Normally, I would not have
come up with this untill it matured a bit, but since the topic of Alphas has
come up: is there anybody out there running a Redhat Linux/Alpha machine who
would want to test these RPM's on it?
