New patches from Ioannis E. VENETIS to allow building more up-to-date Alpha x-compilers.
Some patches are still missing, though.

# Taken from http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/gcc/gcc/config.gcc.diff?r1=1.91&r2=1.92

# Should fix error

#   Configuration x86_64-host_unknown-linux-gnu not supported

# when configuring gcc-2.95 on x86_64 build for i686 target

# It's a bit silly, since tm_file refers to files that don't exist,

# but as long as x86_64 is just the build machine, that doesn't matter.
