Worked for me.

Could you tell me the exact steps you did?


This is my case:

My kernel source tree is located at $HOME/ref/linux
alpha tool chains are located at $HOME/tools/alpha-10.1.0/bin



I tried a simple GNUmakefile with 3 lines.

You can see 'make' is building the alpha kernel


Please see below:
