Hello,

I know this is probably going to sound stupid, but hey,
you only learn by asking...

FreeBSD and Linux don't use the same ELF format, do they?
I thought the Compaq compiler produced Linux/Alpha binaries,
in which case you would need the Linux emulator to run them.
=CCf that's the case, is there really a speed increase to be
gained? And even if it is, do we really want the FreeBSD ports
collection to prefer building Linux/Alpha binaries over native
binaries on the Alpha?
