Alpha's <sys/poll.h> file was so far compatible with most of the other
archs (except SPARC). Since the introduction of POLLREMOVE it's
different. In Alpha:

#define POLLREMOVE (1 << 11)
+#define POLLRDHUP (1 << 12)

For the other archs:

#define POLLREMOVE 0x1000
+#define POLLRDHUP 0x2000


For Alpha the values should have been 1<<12 and 1<<13. Neither
POLLREMOVE nor POLLRDHUP have been in any glibc header. How widely are
they used elsewhere? Is it too late to change the Alpha definitions to
match the rest?

As far as I'm concerned this is a brand new thing, so there should be no problems in making it right.
