I think I've fixed both of these now.  The panic was due to the brandinfo
struct changing and nobody updating the linux/alpha code to match the

Grab 1.74 of alpha/linux_sysvec.c and you should be OK.

BTW, sorry for not responding sooner.  I don't read emulation (tho I
probably should, given that I maintain 1.25 emulators..).
