Please be sure that you build and install libstand before building
a loader! (or use buildworld, that should work)
FICL is now active on the Alpha, and actually seems to work. The Alpha
problems have been solved - it was an alignment issue of the end of code.
Adding/removing code would make it fault.
I am not sure if the x86 loader will be affected by a mismatch, but I would
not like to bet on it. Be safe and make sure it is not linked against
a stale libstand. :-)
Cheers,
-Peter

Modified files:
sys/boot/alpha/common Makefile.common
Log:
Reactivate the FICL hooks to make it be compiled in, but also initialize
FICL. bootforth is now live on the Alpha!
**BEWARE** - you *MUST* build and install a current libstand or you will
most likely get zfree() panics at loader startup.
We should now be able to set up the loader.conf stuff on the Alpha too.
