FWIW, I've never gotten that linkage failure on my alphaev6-linux machine, and
last week's snapshots (4.7-20110423, 4.6-20110422, and 4.5-20110421) all
bootstrapped fine on it.

I do have quite an old binutils (2.18.50.0.9-8.fc10 20080822).  I tried
binutils-2.21 once, but it regressed some gcc tls test so I ditched it. 
Haven't tried any other binutils versions yet.
