Get rid of -O2 in /etc/make.conf; comment out the CFLAGS line. You should NEVER, EVER build _anything_ with -O2 on an alpha. The compiler is very fragile and has been known to do odd things when compiling -O2. I'm starting to think that any optimizations other than -O should probably be disabled in the compiler to keep people from blowing their feet off like you've just done. I'd suggest re-loading the machine from the cd at this point, or building a world on another machine which has a good world & doing a make installworld via NFS mounts.
