Please find attached (updated archinc) patch that solves the tachyon compile problem, because lam adds -m64 to gcc's command line on alpha...
Created attachment 289772 [details] add ifndefs to archinc patch to make alpha work
I've added an external bug reference to the original bug I opened against tachyon.
Actually, ia64 has this same problem. My resolution was to only apply this patch and set the -m%{mode} flag on arches that I know support it. In this case, the list of supported arches is: i386 ppc: -m32 s390: -m31 x86_64 ppc64 s390x: -m64 No other arches use this any longer.
