Maybe it works on the alpha, maybe not. The code should be 64bit
clean, but as I don't have an Alpha, I can't test it.

I wonder what this means.

It seems as if <asm/current.h> was included inside a function definition?
What happens when compiling with "make -k"? This makes "make" ignore
compilation errors. I suspect similar problems with ftape-proc.c and
zftape-syms.c, too, maybe also with ftape-init.c
Good luck
