Subject: building -current fails

Building a distribution from -current cvs sources checked out a 
couple of days ago doesn't work on an alpha (3000/400, AS 200 nor PWS 
500), although it does on an i386 machine.

After checking out the sources I:

# mkdir /usr/obj /usr/tools /usr/DistribDir /usr/ReleaseDir
# cd /usr/src
# ./build.sh -d -D ../DistribDir -R ../ReleaseDir

which eventually broke with:

/usr/src/sys/arch/alpha/stand/boot/../../../../lib/libkern/softfloat.c

Does someone know of a fix please?  I'd rather like to experience the 
tremendous speed increase with X mentioned in the list last month
