I agree, you've got a broken build there.

Several people have reported successful use of 7.1 on Alphas. I've
tested it personally on a Debian Alpha box.
I suspect you are having problems with compiler bugs (egcs-2.91.66 is
pretty far back no?). Try a newer gcc release --- 2.95.2 is what I was
using on that Debian box. Or perhaps just reducing the optimization
level to -O0 will work.
