Sorry, I don't know what's going wrong. But to be honest, I would have
been surprised if ASC did run on Alpha out of the box...

I don't expect the changes to get ASC to run on other platforms to be
big, but without such machines I can't find the problems myself. The
delete void* and char array subscripts should not be the source of any
portability problems, that should work in those circumstances, however
ugly it is. Instead I suspect some structure alignment issues because
ints are 64 Bit on Alpha - unlike AMD64, where an int is still 32 bit. 

Currently only i386 and AMD64 are known to work, PowerPC support is on
the way.

I'm very aware that there are foul things under the hood of ASC (using
valgrind myself) : primarily the graphics engine with its MS-DOS
legacy. I'm working on a complete replacement which will result in ASC
2.0, but that's still several month off.
