Trying to boot with a newly-built loader (make world earlier today
from fresh sources) results in:

FreeBSD/alpha SRM disk boot, Revision 1.2

boot failure

no matter which kernel I try to boot.  Booting my new kernel with the
old loader (from the DP1 dist) works fine until it tries to start
init(8):

spec_getpages: preposterous offset 0xfff80000f4460000
exec /sbin/init: error 5
spec_getpages: preposterous offset 0xfff800001426c000

panic: no init
panic

Booting DP1's GENERIC with the old loader and the new userland works
fine.

Clean tree, no funny stuff in make.conf (unless 'CPUTYPE?=ev56' counts
as funny stuff)

<guess type="wild">The loader problem is possibly a compiler issue
(since DP1 was built with gcc 2.95 while my world was built with 3.1).
The init problem is probably a UFS2 f*up; the code has obviously not
been tested on a 64-bit architecture (the UFS2 stuff broke the kernel
build).</guess>
