function); did you mean 'SYS_getxpid'?
syscall(SYS_getpid);
^~~~~~~~~~
Alpha Linux does not have the getpid syscall; it follows OSF1.0
conventions which has the getxpid syscall returning the PID (and
other info inaccessible via the C ABI).
This problem was introduced in the patch sparc-clone-lockup. I
attach a fix and that is to be applied on top of
debian/patches/sparc-clone-lockup.
Cheers,
Michael.
