Error building PyQt on Alpha: failed to set dynamic section sizes: File format not recognized

Has anyone got PyQt to build on Alpha? I was trying to emerge this last
night and the compile was literally keeping me from sleeping because it
was thrashing to swap (I have an old HD that is too loud). I have 256 MB
memory, which is apparently not enough. 

I changed my swap configuration to use a faster drive, and now at
least I am getting an error message: Failed to set dynamic section
sizes: file format not recognized. Googling this error gives me a bunch
of hits on people having trouble compiling different packages on
alpha, but not solution. 

Anybody know what to do? Does this have anything to do with running out
of memory? Below is a log of my emerge attempt

Thanks, 

Allen
