I've decided to spend some time toying with coda on my alpha. It seems
that this might be an unpleasant undertaking. I have dropped the alpha
lwp assembly routines from arla into the 4.7.2 release, and fixed a
bunch of pointer conversion warning while compiling, but this seems
entirely secondary next to the requirement of sticking 64 bit pointers
into the PARM structure which is commented as being (needing to be?) 
four bytes in size. Who should I be talking to for help?
