It's sometimes handy to have a cross-compiler for alpha. But I do not have
a ppc machinea (I planned to, though), so it's a bit of overkill...

It occurs to me that this "rpm thingy" people talk so much about is
responsible for the vast majroity of "unexplainable" bugs. Just yesterday
I tried all sorts of precompiled apaches (including the redhat one), and
they all dumped core. As always, building from source and it suddenly
worked...

Most probable causes for this is that the compiler has problems creating
executables. Since environemntvariables influence config.guess a lot,
thats the place to start looking. Of course, a missing ldconfig would
explain it just as well.
