actually, alpha in 7 defaults to XF86:

.if \
    ${MACHINE} == "acorn32"     || \
    ${MACHINE} == "alpha"       || \
    ${MACHINE} == "amiga"       || \
    ${MACHINE} == "mac68k"      || \
    ${MACHINE} == "pmax"        || \
    ${MACHINE} == "sun3"
X11FLAVOUR?=    XFree86
.else
X11FLAVOUR?=    Xorg
.endif

though everything worked last i heard, except for Xalpha, which has the
tc-framebuffers supported, but all the newer systems should work with
xorg 1.10.

Marco, are you able to build netbsd?  building with X11FLAVOUR=Xorg
should work.  eg:

   % cd src
   % ./build.sh -V X11FLAVOUR=Xorg -O /var/obj/alpha -j4 -Uu -m alpha -x -X /usr/xsrc release

or so.
