[x264-devel] configure fails to detect alphaev67 as ALPHA

[Fabian Greffrath]

Hi all,

Debian's alpha buildds identify themselves as alphaev67, so the check 
for $ARCH = "ALPHA" in configure around line 607 fails. As a 
consequence the shared library is built without PIC and the linker 
fails. This is documented in the Debian BTS #642810:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=642810

The attached patch fixes this issue by considering alpha* as ALPHA in 
the configure script.

Best Regards,
Fabian Greffrath
