We've had a very similar problem some time ago on x86. There is a difference
in symbols cpp predefines and gcc predefines (try touch /tmp/foo.c ; cpp -dM
/tmp/foo.c; echo '--' ; gcc -E -dM /tmp/foo.c).

Does cpp define any preprocessor symbols that indicate "alpha"? If so, have
Branden add an appropriate #ifdef FOO #define __alpha #endif to
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/config/Imake.cf. If not, please do a NMU of egcs, adding
"-D__alpha" to the appropriate CPP_PREDEFINES definition, and send a bug
report to remind me to include this change in the next regular egcs upload.
