OK, I have added code in utils/adt/Makefile as:

# seems to be required for some date/time stuff 07/19/1999 bjm
ifeq ($(CPU),alpha)
CFLAGS+= -mieee
endif

This is in the current tree, not 6.5.1. Please test and let me know if
this helps. I also added a Makefile-visible variable called CPU. Seems
we really don't have such a variable already available in the
Makefile-scope.
