I can confirm this, on both my x86 and alpha system. I'll add some extra
weirdness to this:

On my alpha more packages seem to compile than on my intel. Why? I can't
explain it.

Here are my buildoutputs of the affected packages:
http://d10179.dtk.chello.nl/build/cooker/alpha/broken/
http://d10179.dtk.chello.nl/build/cooker/i586/broken/

(My intel is a recent cooker installation, help up to date with autorpm.
My alpha is a 7.0 installation, I compile all the src.rpm's and keep the
machine up to date with autorpm. May i note that the 264dp over at the
Paris Office is also coping with these issues... I'm wondering if kenobi
is
able to build these src.rpm's it produced.)

I would really apreciate that this issue is solved. I'm quite stuck at
the moment, since I want to install / upgrade packages which are
currently
not building on my alpha. I also don't have a clue on how to procede
from
here (how can I help to help?).

Greetz,

Stefan
