Also, the results of running the "./myconfig" script are useful,
it shows the exact configuration (OS, gcc, ...)

Hmmm.  I know that I did stop trying to build on Tru64 with gcc years
ago since it produced buggy code for the (ta-dah!) the pack and regex
tests (pat and regex*).  (The Storable tests weren't there back then
so I don't know about them with gcc/alpha.)  Which gcc version is being
used in NetBSD/alpha?  I vaguely remember gcc 2.95.3 being better on Tru64.
