For historical reasons, configure.com assumes you are running the
long-defunct VAX C unless if finds evidence to the contrary. I think
the immediate issue probably results from the rebranding of the compiler to HP
C from Compaq C, which has not yet happened on Alpha and VAX (no new
compiler released yet), but has happened on Itanium. Try the
following patch to configure.com. If you don't have GNU patch, just
edit it to replace the "hp" with "HP".
