I haven't tried it, so I'm not really on top of the details, but the gnu
documentation warns about problems when you host a cross-compiler for a
32-bit target on a 64-bit host (which I believe applies to the Alpha).

These issues may soon be (or may have already been) resolved by the EGCS
project.  Can anyone on the EGCS list provide some insight?
