I believe TC support is pretty platform-independent -- you might just
need to map TC's address space and route IRQs appropriately for Alpha.
For MIPS it just works. But there was a problem with booting the kernel
-- I think the timer IRQ didn't work. See
'http://www.phys.ufl.edu/~prescott/linux/alpha/dec3000-port.html'.
