Why not do it as with i386:
cc - a good, safe and stable gcc (egcs 1.0.3a or whatever the best is
for alpha)
c++ - a current snapshot of eg++, that handles exceptions, templates
and other c++ goodies correctly.
cc and c++ must not be the same version and for cc stability is more
important than anything, because low level is compiled with it
(kernel, glibc,...).
May the Source be with you.
