Setiathome segfaults on current (~alpha) portage tree on alpha cpu's.  Before
this happend setiathome always had to be ran with the -nolock option to get it
to run at all.  (I've seen the problem also occur on debian and redhat)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.run the setiathome binary using /opt/setiathome/setiathome
2.setiathome segfaults.
3.

Actual Results:  
seg fualt

Expected Results:  
Crunching packets would have been nice :)

Setiathome should be masked on alpha.

Could you provide me with the tarball as an attachment to this bug?  I'm having
trouble downloading it right now, the site isn't responding.  I'd like to try
once before removing the keyword.  Thanks

thanks, I verified this segfaults and added -alpha to KEYWORDS.  unfortunately
that's the best we can do until a Linux/alpha binary appears on the website
