I am not interested in supporting old Alphas without BWX anymore.
I am drawing the line. Either someone steps up to support non-BWX
Alpha and promptly fixes glibc or the architecture baseline is
increased to include BWX (thereby fixing most of the glibc issues).
Without either of those happening I give up being an Alpha porter
and switch off my Alpha buildd permanently. I have many other
interesting projects I could be working on!

Michael.
