In theory at least it should build on Alpha. I ported the core bit, the uno
bridge, to Alpha some time ago. Its not like it gets built every day so parts
mightn't work. Various workarouns like 

configuring --with-system-python and/or --with-system-mozilla etc to avoid
building the in-tree copies and use the copy already installed might be
helpful to avoid any gotchas with those.
