Huh.  That's odd.  On i386, LD_ASSUME_KERNEL stops the linker from using
the optimized versions of some c library functions that may only be
present on newer kernels.  These are in a seperate subdirectory, and it
basically removes that from LD_PATH.  I have no idea on alpha, but I
only see one libc.so.6.1 in the packages list, so maybe this won't work.

Basically, the problem I see is that the zombie'd processes are getting
a SIGRT_0 and don't know how to cope, and it blows them up.  I suspect
that the build daemon was running a 2.6 kernel (although I'm waiting for
confirmation of that), and that this has done something odd to the
signal handling for you.  There is usually a way to set an environment
variable saying basically 'only use these older functions', and it's
usually LD_ASSUME_KERNEL, but I'm not an alpha guy, and so maybe I'm
wrong here.

I will keep looking and let you know if I find anything,
