nistp224 problem on FreeBSD/Alpha (was: [portability] nistp224 and hash127 problems on Linux/i686)

 Forget about that, find-systype.sh is supposed to handle it
correctly ; a bug in my development tools got in the way. nistp224 and
hash127 now compile flawlessly by default on my x86 boxes. Sorry.


 Nevertheless, I still have a question about the Alpha. The default
optimization setting for that platform seems to be "sparc". Is it
correct ?

 For nistp224: with conf-cc and conf-opt left 'auto', the build seems
to produce incorrect code. Here are the sysdeps:

--- cut ---

 I then tried idea53 and (you never know) idea64, for conf-opt: same
error, same place. What should I do ?

 Thanks,
