Most of the credit belongs to kloeri, who has been heading up
Gentoo/Alpha development for some time now.

Only big issue from my perspective is that it doesn't boot on some
machines where 1.4 worked fine.  For example DS20e.  The problem
appears to be that the Generic Alpha target for the kernel broke at
some point.  So I continue to boot from a 1.4 CD then install using
2005.0 stages.
