It should be not needed, since I have subscribed again to the
freebsd-alpha list and I receive it now. I had subscribed to this list a
couple of months ago, but perhaps the confirmation email has had problems
or I missed to send back the confirmation. Anyway, this is now fixed.

Dirk reported the spurious SCSI parity problem with Wide SCSI devices that
has been fixed in latest `sym' driver (committed on 02/13). The Release
candidate 4.0 for Alpha that fails on Dirk's machine is CD 2/11 and thus
hasn't the corresponding fix for the `sym' driver.
