loncalls broken?

[Camm Maguire <camm@enhanced.com>]

Greetings!  gcl has traditionally used some flavor of -mlongcalls switch to gcc
to get around the following build failures:

=============================================================================
alpha:
=============================================================================

;; Compiling ../lsp/gcl_listlib.lsp.
Warning: NTH-VALUE is being redefined.
;; End of Pass 1.

=============================================================================

-mlongcall used on ppc, didn't think alpha required anything special
 in this regard.  Is there a reliable way I can get full word sized
 relocs out of gcc on all platforms?

Take care,
