It works. Thank you.

I have noticed yet another problem: more than one bit of sh_bang can be
used on alpha:

fs/exec.c
1189                         return retval;
1190 
1191                 /* Remember if the application is TASO.  */
1192                 bprm->sh_bang = eh->ah.entry < 0x100000000UL;
1193 
1194                 bprm->file = file;
