Well, after grabbing the source code for kerberos, I quickly realized that it wouldnt run because of the alpha having 64 bits in a long... :(
So my question is: (Drum roll, please)
Would I just need to do a #ifdef __alpha
typedef int int32;
#else
typedef long int32;
and replace all longs in the source with int32?
(assuming krb4 since 5 is in beta)

asssuming that works, actually creating a conf-alpha.h file
for kerberos is a hard thing to do since the #defines
arent very helpful in what their purpose is.
