We are not currently building experimental on Alpha and I personally won't
be able to run a build of gcc-4.7 for three weeks or so, most likely.

But I would hazard a guess that an Alpha build will fail with GPREL16
relocation errors at the link stage, as gcc-snapshot in unstable has been
failing in this manner.  Uros (upstream maintainer of the Alpha port of
gcc) recently reported that he has to pass --no-relax to the linker (the
standard work-around for this problem) to get the build of gcc to
complete.

Cheers
Michael.
