Yes, i am aware of this problem, i did look at the buildd web site myself. I was not aware about the memory size available to the build depends, and was wondering if it was an upstream problem or a problem with the build box (btw, on i386 i only have 128MB memory + 256MB swap, and it builds fine, so it _could_ be an upstream problem, but then i don(t know the alpha well enough.)
