Under alpha virtual machine, if set i386 guest page size 8KB, it will
cause failure directly (any dynamically linked binaries can not work).
This fix can let i386 bash/cp/vi/ls run under alpha virtual machine,
although there maybe be many other issues (which I did not meet, now).
Do you have any other ideas for solving this issue? e.g. can we rebuild
all i386 programs with segment alignment to 8KB? I am not quite sure,
but some i386 programs (which are interested in) have no source code!
:-(.
Thanks.
