Ludo,
No additional patches were needed and no, I don't have any DEC Alpha hardware. If you rather not include an Alpha port, then why does the code state "alpha-linux" in /gnu/packages/bootstrapping.scm?

Nice! Did cross-compilation work without any additional patches? Do you have hardware to run it on? Since Alpha CPUs are (unfortunately) no longer produced, I would rather not include the Alpha port in Guix proper. You would have to maintain your own branch of Guix if you plan to use it regularly. Thanks, Ludo’.
