I have no idea why this is occuring. It works fine on ppc as well, and the package is pure C. Maybe a GCC bug, or something odd with your CFLAGS?
tcort: does this still occur on another gcc/binutils versions?
The test still failed with a slightly newer toolchain. Maybe someone is testing gcc-4.x and can try it? # emerge --info Portage 2.1-r2 (default-linux/alpha/2006.1, gcc-3.4.6, glibc-2.3.6-r4, 2.6.16.19 alpha) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.16.19 alpha EV56 Gentoo Base System version 1.12.1 distcc 2.18.3 alpha-unknown-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [enabled] app-admin/eselect-compiler: [Not Present] dev-java/java-config: [Not Present] dev-lang/python: 2.4.3-r1 dev-python/pycrypto: 2.0.1-r5 dev-util/ccache: [Not Present] dev-util/confcache: [Not Present] sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.17 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6-r1 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1-r3 sys-devel/gcc-config: 1.3.13-r3 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.22 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r4 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="alpha" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="alpha-unknown-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-mieee -pipe -O2 -mcpu=ev56" CHOST="alpha-unknown-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/share/X11/xkb" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/env.d /etc/gconf /etc/revdep-rebuild /etc/terminfo" CXXFLAGS="-mieee -pipe -O2 -mcpu=ev56" DISTDIR="/usr/portage/distfiles" FEATURES="autoconfig distcc distlocks metadata-transfer sandbox sfperms strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://adelie.polymtl.ca/ http://distfiles.gentoo.org/" LINGUAS="en fr" MAKEOPTS="-j4" PKGDIR="/usr/portage/packages" PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS="--recursive --links --safe-links --perms --times --compress --force --whole-file --delete --delete-after --stats --timeout=180 --exclude='/distfiles' --exclude='/local' --exclude='/packages'" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/portage" SYNC="rsync://larry@rsync.larrythecow.net/gentoo-portage" USE="alpha X aac aim alsa artwork artworkextra audacious audiofile berkdb bitmap-fonts branding browserplugin bzip2 cli crypt cups dlloader dri encode flac gdbm glut gnome gphoto2 gtk gtk2 icq ipv6 isdnlog jabber jpeg ldap libg++ lua mad mikmod moznocompose moznoirc moznomail mp3 mpeg msn ncurses nls nocd nptl nptlonly nsplugin offensive ogg oggvorbis oscar pam pcre perl png ppds pppd python readline reflection session shorten sndfile spell spl ssl svg symlink tcpd truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts udev unicode userlocales vorbis xface xml xmms xorg xvid yahoo zlib elibc_glibc input_devices_keyboard input_devices_mouse input_devices_evdev kernel_linux linguas_en linguas_fr userland_GNU video_cards_cirrus video_cards_ati video_cards_dummy video_cards_fbdev video_cards_glint video_cards_mga video_cards_nv video_cards_rendition video_cards_s3 video_cards_s3virge video_cards_savage video_cards_siliconmotion video_cards_sisusb video_cards_tdfx video_cards_tga video_cards_v4l video_cards_vga video_cards_voodoo" Unset: CTARGET, EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS, INSTALL_MASK, LANG, LC_ALL, LDFLAGS, PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS

bumb? :)
bumping this constantly wont solve anything. an alpha guy will have to investigate the issue and narrow down the failing code.
Seems to not be a problem with CFLAGS or different toolchain combinations. If you check libmcrypt source you will find a KNOWN-BUGS file with this content: --- 8< --- cast-256 and rc6 do not work properly on Alpha (64 bit) machines --- 8< --- Debian (which doesn't run the test-suite) and red-hat don't care about it and haven't got any kind of patches for this, as far as I can see. I think this need a deep debug to know what's happening in alpha. Upstream bug tracker and cvs seems to not be too much active so asking upstream to fix the bug could not be effective. One of our options is to disable the test in alpha (I will attach a patch) but Robin, I leave this up to you. If you need help or an account with debugging, the alpha arch team will provide as much as we can. Thanks.

Created attachment 175224 [details, diff] patch to fix libmcrypt cast-256 After some debugging, I figured it out. The problem was the rotl32 macro in lib/mcrypt_modules.h. According to the Alpha Architecture Handbook[*], the sll and srl instructions mask all but bits 5:0 of the shift argument. Consider the case where the number to be shifted is 1 and the shift argument is 32. The expected result is that the original number is the same as the final number, since it rotated the entire width of the field. On Alpha (and others?), the 64-bit registers prevent it from rotating, since a shift of 32 actually rotates bits into the upper 32-bits, yielding a result of 0. The fix is to manually mask the shift argument. Patch included. This did not affect AMD64 because gcc is able to generate 32-bit shift instructions, whereas no equivalent exists on Alpha. [*] Page 101, http://h18002.www1.hp.com/alphaserver/technology/literature/alphaahb.pdf I'll file this upstream as well.
Created attachment 175226 [details, diff] Mask all shift arguments For safety sake, we might as well mask all shift arguments. This patch does that and removes the KNOWN-BUGS file, as the only known bug was this alpha bug that is now fixed.
Added to 2.5.8-r1 now.
