Oh, thanks for the quick answer. So I suppose the only way to get
recent glibc working on alpha would be to mirror the patches gentoo
uses? Or is the ebuild also broken? I mean, in that case I would know
that I should either drop it or downgrade our glibc spell to 2.7, the
last known-to-work version.

It's a bit sad, though. But I see the point that there are limited
resources to maintain the port. Heck, I don't even have the free time
that I spent already on taking care of the Source Mage port to alpha.


Alrighty then,

Thomas.
