If I am not mistaken in means that you are trying to run Linux on an old
Alpha processor model no longer supported by the Linux kernel. I don't
know why, but another Alpha Linux user discovered that emulation of a
some math instructions not present on older Alpha processors is no
longer in the current Linux-2.2 kernels and that this caused statHistBin
errors in Squid.
