I can vouch that the alpha->vax build can produce a system with "interesting"
side-effects :-) With current->current I couldn't produce a working kernel,
it got built OK but crashed hard pretty early, fsck *always* corrupts disks
and other minor irritations. The fsck problem was a lot of fun, everytime
I let fsck touch the disks it would munch it's way through the fs giving
me the pleasure of rehearsing newfs options..

I'm not sure about alpha->m68k.
