Hello,

there are GENERIC and ALPHA configurations in sys/arch/alpha/conf. A
comment in GENERIC says:

"The generic kernel on NetBSD/alpha does enough to get booted, etc., but
not much more.  For a more complete kernel see the ALPHA machine
description file."

and

"If you add stuff to this, please add it to the ALPHA configuration, too."

This seem strange. Shouldn't GENERIC itself be a reasonably complete
kernel?

Also, the request to add stuff to ALPHA was ignored several times, leading
to a situation whre ALPHA is no longer a superset of GENERIC.

Could I just merge the two and remove ALPHA?
