Thanks. I tested this in Linux with gcc 2.8.1 and all went Ok (I haven't
booted Win95 today yet). Then perhaps it's really not worth to touch it 
even if it is not very difficult. Then we should consider -dumpbase as a 
relic from previous versions of gcc.

Robert, have You tried a version of port of gcc I uploaded to delorie.com
(it is in /v2gnu/alphas). Unfortunatelly looks that last version of 
patches I sent to You were better (my own opinion).
