Hi!
I don't know if the DEC Alpha will crash when you access a 2/4-byte
integer at an odd address.
You might check this with this small piece of code:
void main(void) {
int f[2], *p;
p = (int*)(((char*)f)+1);
printf ("%d I survived\n", *p);
}
This would be my idea of a failure reason.
However, I have no ideas about this. I think getting to know
at what line in the source the process dies is pretty essential.
Greetings,
Georg
