We did used to have an alpha_osf1 link, and so some people clearly still have 
this in their path (at least you did!)

Since this may affect other people I've put this link in our tools as
well:
 # cd /usr/sde/ode3.0/tools
 # ln -s alpha_UNIX alpha_osf1

This could be done at other sites as well.  Although if this is generally
not used, perhaps we should encourage people to move away from this if it
means holding on to an old convention for very few people (?).
