FWIW: I would like to see this committed for the Alpha.

This will allow people who want to get things working with the Compaq
C compiler to add the flag above to the Makefile.

For people who have not installed the Compaq C compiler, it will
make no difference to the behaviour of the ports system, and it
will not impact i386 at all, since it checks to make sure that
it's Alpha architecture before allowing use of the compiler.

Thanks very much to Jan for the original good idea of getting
things working with the Compaq compiler where possible, and for
the work necessary to bring the patch up to date vs. bsd.ports.mk.
