Hi fuddl,

The attached patch fixes openarena on alpha.  In addition to the two build
problems Falk identified in his bug report, an additional change is needed
to not use -ffast-math when building on alpha, as -ffast-math will cause the
client to die with SIGFPE.

Heh, there's no reason the client shouldn't be supported on alpha if it's
already supported on other 64-bit archs, and I've confirmed that the client
does work with this patch applied.  Please apply the patch; if you need a
sponsor for this fix, I'd be happy to help.

Cheers,
