Eventually a port for NetBSD/Alpha did show up on the site and I've used
it.  It ran in the background.  I've got seti running on a number of
other machines, so I don't know how robust it was.  It was eating a 
significant amount of memory on my machine (which only had 32M in
it when I tried it) and the swapping was slowing it down too much.
