Hi all,

Debian's alpha buildds identify themselves as alphaev67, so the check for $ARCH = "ALPHA" in configure around line 607 fails. As a consequence the shared library is built without PIC and the linker fails. This is documented in the Debian BTS #642810:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=642810

The attached patch fixes this issue by considering alpha* as ALPHA in the configure script.

Best Regards,
Fabian Greffrath
