I am not certain what would cause this problem.  Perhaps you are
encountering a stack size limit on the Alpha.  On the Alpha system
that I have access to, the stack size is limited to 2 MB initially,
but can be increased to 32 MB using the command `limit stacksize unlimited' 
(in csh), or `ulimit -s unlimited' (in bash).
