I see no point to this patch.

There's no reference to these files in the toplevel configure.in;
therefore, they will never be used.

Furthermore, it is my understanding that the alpha ports generate
PIC code by default (thus making -fPIC and -fpic meaningless for
the alpha).

Again, I have to ask, what problem are you trying to solve with
this patch?
