Couple of things here..

First, adding -Wa,-mev6 to CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS is definitely not needed
and I would expect it break a few things personally.

Second, I've been using gcc-4.1.1-r3 for months on EV68 system(s) with
no problem at all. I'm maintaining all the toolchain stuff on alpha as
so far testing and keywording goes and I do most of my work on a CS20
(dual ev68AL so fairly close to your DS25 regarding specs). I haven't
seen any gcc related problems personally.

So I expect your problems either stems from your CFLAGS or perhaps from
glibc that. Which version of glibc are you using and what USE flags are
enabled?
