Weird!  It doesn't seem like the Alpha make should be different.

Yes, I agree.  The old code also assumed it wouldn't be 0.

GDB is still looking for the bottom of the stack. :-( I did a "bt -30"
to try to find it.  Do any of you know the address of the outermost
frame of the kernel stack on the Alpha?  If I knew that then I could
probably find the region of interest faster than GDB.
