Michael Cree (CC'ed) has several Alpha servers running which are also used
for building Debian packages and testing kernels.

I also have four AlphaStations (233, 433au and XP-1000) on which I could
test any patch. But I'm currently in Japan until Friday next week, so
I don't have any means to access the machines.
