5 The gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.5-r1 kernel works on Alpha just fine. I've got it
6 running on my production box. It has all the Alpha-specific features from
7 the alpha-sources (2.4.21) kernel.

11 uhm...huh? The stage tarballs are intended to run on any Alpha, and so are
12 built for EV4. If you want to have binaries optimized for your system, then
13 you get to build them. (There may be stage tarballs for multiple
14 architectures later, but for now, they're universal.)
