The attached patch allowed me to compile on Alpha. Note that st_atim and st_mtim are of type timespec_t and st_atime and st_mtime are of type time_t so adding a couple e's won't fix the problem.

Created attachment 16642 [details, diff] Patch to fix strip.c
Could you look in /usr/include/bits/stat.h It is there for x86. If it isn't for Alpha then glibc needs to be upgraded for Alpha from glibc CVS, I guess, I will just mask this version then for alpha.
I've the same problem on x86... strip.c: In function `process_file': strip.c:274: structure has no member named `st_atim' strip.c:274: structure has no member named `st_atim' strip.c:275: structure has no member named `st_mtim' strip.c:275: structure has no member named `st_mtim' make[2]: *** [strip.o] Error 1 linux-headers is 2.4.19-r1, perhaps it need an update to 2.4.22 ? glibc is 2.3.1-r4 bye
This patch will not work with glibc-2.3.2 which is in portage for x86. As it stands, unpatched, it works fine with glibc-2.3.2 on x86, but not on alpha. With patch it will work with glibc-2.3.1 on everything, with glibc-2.3.2 on alpha but not x86. I say I will not apply patch and remove alpha keyword, and up the glibc version required, and wait will a newer version of glibc pops up!
ok, added the patch for alpha only, and changed the requirement to glibc-2.3.2 or higher. Please test on alpha.
This is fixed on alpha. I'm running elfutils-0.84 with glibc-2.3.2-r1 on an alpha. Thanks Stefan.
