I found the installation fault. I've brandelf'ed the
libots.so, but that caused the problem. Re-installing the
libots-2.2.7-2.alpha.rpm fixed my problem with Compaq C.

No, I haven't... and now I've run it.
Running that script seems to choose an appropriate ld.

Yes, without this compiler, I feel that Alpha 21164A is
merely as fast as (sometimes slower than) the Pentium-II/III or
AMD Athlon with the same clock level.

The Fortran compiler seems another story.... now,
Fortran compiler stops like;
% /compat/linux/usr/bin/fort -v bench.f
/usr/lib/compaq/cfal/decfort90 -o /tmp/foreITPLn.o bench.f
Fatal error in: /usr/lib/compaq/cfal/decfort90 - core dumped
Signal 140
I don't know why. (Probably, this might be another
installation issue.)
