+20030329:
+ Alphas with libc from between 20030312 and 20030329 exhibit
+ floating point exceptions (FPEs), most notably in awk(1)
+ while upgrading the system through a buildworld.
+
+ So, to successfully upgrade your Alpha, you must either
+ downgrade your libc.so to a pre-20030312 version, or update
+ /usr/share/mk/bsd.cpu.mk to revision 1.26 which adds -mieee
+ to CFLAGS, then forcibly rebuild and install libc:
+
+ cd /usr/src/lib/libc && \
+ make cleandir && make obj && \
+ make -DNOMAN -DNOPROFILE all && \
+ make -DNOMAN -DNOPROFILE install
