Just had my first successful complete compile of the lcrash tools on Alpha. This
is not finished, but it is a definite milestone. There are tons of warnings
("cast to pointer from integer of different size"), and the disassembly cannot
possibly be valid as it is still linked to the i386 debugger code.

The various lcrash libs now lookup the Alpha equivalents of the i386
information, and the same has been done for the stack tracing output. Did some
minor rearrangements in both the arch/alpha and arch/i386 trees (for example, of
kl_get_ra) since they are invoked differently on Alpha vice Intel.
