It is. -mcpu=ev4 is the conservative "works for everybody" flag. Otherwise gcc will end up producing binaries that don't run on older alphas when the compile is done on a newer alpha. The -mcpu-ev56 vs -mcpu-ev4 cpu is almost certainly a red herring. How about building it with -g and running gdb on it and the core dump to find out where its crashing?
