It has been pointed out that the stumbling block is ~10 lines
of Akpha assembly language code that Julian is asking that
someone familiar with the Alpha write.
Julian is not an Alpha assembly language guru. In order to
make these changes, he would have to do a lot of work, whereas
someone who knew Alpha assembly language could do them very
quickly.
I think asking him to do this without knowledge of register
save/restore and allocation plocies of the FreeBSD Alpha port
is rather unfair.
