Speaking for myself, the PWS 433au I've got continues to function
admirably as my IPv6 gateway.  Debian unstable and experimental updates
continue to apply and work within the limits of my ability to test them.
I'm building and running the release candidates and final versions of
the kernel.org tree with the unstable tool chain.  Recently there was a
FTBFS due to relocation issues during the final vmlinux link on alpha:
that has been fixed, and what's left of the alpha community is pretty
quick to respond and identify what's going on.

In summary, alpha is still a viable platform for *me*.
