Last time I checked (some months ago), GHC 4.x wasn't in a shape that it
could be build at all on Alpha architecture! I *dimly* remember problems
wrt. some 64bit stuff (missing or duplicated definitions, etc.)

If you still want to give it a try, I bet you're *very, very* welcome, but
prepare to deeply dive into GHC's sources... :-)

Looks like a problem in the Makefile, a variable seems to be empty...
