 I try not to touch the toolchain if I don't have to, but google
found http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2007-09/msg00058.html

 Unfortunately, it then found
http://sourceware.org/ml/libc-alpha/2007-10/msg00003.html - reading
the reply to that suggests that i586 might be broken in other ways.

 Personally, I gave up building (on the desktop) for i586 in the
gcc-3.3 days, too many applications seemed to be broken for me but
fine for people using i686.  I suspect that anything less than i686
works (if it does) by luck in recent toolchains.

 Sorry, that probably isn't the answer you were looking for, but
much as I like people hanging on to old kit, something newer will
probably work better.  Failing that, unless someone on this list has
a better suggestion, perhaps clfs-1.0 might work.
