 Yes, that is the correct fix. It is effectively only needed to cut
 down ISO sizes for amd64 and sparc64 below CD size (but I am not sure
 it really matters for amd64 as all machines likely have a DVD drive
 or none at all).
 
 Back then I just switched alpha as a 64bit platform too, no deeper
 background - so let's just move it back to .tgz.
 
 Please feel free to commit the obvious change (and request pullup).
