The last builds that succeeded were from 20021228.
Indeed. The alpha build fails on a peephole optimization; I created bootstrap/9180 for it along with a small test case. We could "#ifdef sparc" around the static declaration, though that doesn't solve the real issue. And I don't like conditional compilation in any event. So what's the right thing to do? I'm happy to work on it, but the alpha fix isn't really very obvious and I don't have a powerpc-linux machine. Jeff
