I.e., we have no EV6 type, jsut EV4 and EV5. However, there is no conditional code in the alpha for either the EV4 or EV5. So, I've got 2 suggestions: - Add yet another unused cpu type for EV6. - Do away with EV4 and EV5 and just ahve an AXP cpu type or Alpha or whatever is appropriate. I would say axe the cpu type altogether since it's not used, but config complains.
