I attached my "config.site" file. I am using it with R 0.63.2 on my Alphas
(DU 4.0E) with no problems during compiling. It contains the needed
fortran and ld options. You have to do only a "./configure" and "make".

I hope this helps. 

BTW, there are binary packages available at our ftp server 

  ftp://ftp.uni-klu.ac.at/pub/uni-klu.ac.at/rpms/osf1/alpha/

but currently they are not up to date, and because these packages are in
RPM format you would first need to install rpm 2.5 and some basic freeware
rpm packages for DU 4.0. (These are Digital Unix (4.0) RPMs and no
Linux/Alpha RPMs!)
