FYI...
On the list of platforms, Alpha is listed as an unsupported platform.
I'm not sure about 21.3, but I definately know that 21.2.3 works on
Alpha running Tru64 V5.1B (with some open source libs - which are
available at HP). I am thinking about downloading the latest and trying
it out on Tru64. I will let you know if I have success.
Thanks,
Jared

Libraries which are open source may or may not be free software; also,
even if they are free software, their licenses may or may not be
compatible with the GPL. Could you please show me the precise
licenses of the necessary libraries? (The names would be useful too.)
Once I get that info, I can record the appropriate info about this
configuration.

Do you mean Emacs 21.3, or the current development version?
It would be useful to test either one, or both of them separately.

This is an excellent question. I has been a while since I did
configured my Alpha box, so I'm not 100% sure I rememeber everything on
there. I do remember checking out the open source software distribution
that was put out with the V5.1B release, so I'm not quite sure how much
I had to install to get emacs to compile. I'll look into it and get
back to you.

I'll try 21.3 first.
