On an Alpha, this typically happens because of non-finite arithmetic
(division by zero, operations on NaNs, etc.). This may be either
because a floating variable did not get initialized before used or
because the code really attempts to make use of non-finite arithmetic.
The latter should be avoided in SANE software because, for
portabilities sake, it should not assume support for IEEE non-finite
arithmetic.
Hope this helps in tracking down the problem,
