This is not necessarily an Alpha problem; several mp3's will produce
a similar error (the '40 bits' portion varies greatly, of course)
under both Linux/x86 and Linux/axp.  I imagine it has something to do
with the alignment of the planets and the encoding package used.

Many programs do compile fine.  Is there one in particular you wanted
to know about?
