I'm not sure if I should be reporting this to the port-alpha list...

Building a NetBSD/i386 distribution from -current cvs sources checked 
out a couple of days ago doesn't work on an alpha.  I've read that 
building distributions for 64-bit platforms is broken, but this 
should have worked shouldn't it?

After checking out the sources I:

# mkdir /usr/obj /usr/tools /usr/i386-DistribDir /usr/i386-ReleaseDir
# cd /usr/src
# ./build.sh -d -D ../i386-DistribDir -R ../i386-ReleaseDir -a i386

which eventually broke with (I don't know how much of this is relevant):
