Hi, All!

As part of my on-going love of my Alpha box and FreeBSD, I'm trying to
get Mozilla to compile and run.  I've got an LX164 running 4.5 Stable
using ports CVSUP-ed today at 10:00 AM EDT.

To jump past certain hurdles, I had to swap FreeBSD's zip with the one I
installed with/using OSF/1 compatibility and manually compile pathsub.o
(without '-ffunction-sections' for some odd reason).  Now I see ...

<snip>

gmake[2]: Leaving directory
`/usr/ports/www/mozilla/work/mozilla/embedding/browser/gtk/tests'
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/www/mozilla/work/mozilla'
/usr/bin/sed -e "s;@PREFIX@;/usr/X11R6;g" 
/usr/ports/www/mozilla/files/mozilla.sh
>/usr/ports/www/mozilla/work/mozilla/mozilla
(cd /usr/ports/www/mozilla/work/mozilla/dist/bin;  /usr/bin/env
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=. ./regxpcom;  echo
skin,install,select,classic/1.0 >> chrome/installed-chrome.txt;  echo

/usr/bin/env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=. MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=. ./regchrome)
/usr/libexec/ld-elf.so.1: ./libxpcom.so: Unsupported relocation type 240
in non-PLT relocations

*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/www/mozilla.

</snip>

My understanding of PLT errors is that they are rare and the valid
values are 0 through 10 (at least for i386).  So what's up with a value
of 240???  Before 1.0 rc1, the "Unsupported relocation" was type 8 which
should be valid (again, at least on i386).

I 'make clean'-ed, removed the source from /usr/ports/distfiles, and
recompiled ld-elf.so.1.  Yet the darned thing still fails to compile. 
Anyone have thoughts?  I've seen this issue since about 0.91 or so. 
Before I submit a bug report, I thought I ask the list if anyone was
successful with Mozilla on Alpha and how they did it.

TIA!

Dex
