5.0b2 on alpha/osf1 4.0

Hi,
I am trying to get GRASS5.0b2 running on

  OSF1 V4.0 878 alpha

with DEC's cc, version:

  DEC C V5.6-079 on Digital UNIX V4.0 (Rev. 878)

Most programs are compiled now, but I had to hack around
the source to make some things work.

In special: someone removed #include <malloc.h> and
  added his own declarations in some files.
  I had to remove a few of these.

  font.c like in src/display/devices/XDRIVER/lib
  had problems, because it read sizeof(long) chunks out
  of the font files and dealt with it, but long is 8Byte on
  the 64 bit alpha CPU. There were more problems, as
  all characters were one off, I hacked around.

  d.legend has problems with numbering in some places
  being off one. (I also whacked around.)

So I am not sure, if I fixed everything correclty, as I am a beginner
to GRASS.

Contact me, if you are in a similiar situation and want to
exchange hints.
BTW: Is there a place where patches are collected?

Kind Regards,
  Bernhard
