Alpha is also unique in that it's the only architecture that doesn't preserve data dependency ordering.

  It's the only CPU architecture. I think many accelerators (e.g., GPUs) don't preserve it either.

    I think by the definition I was using, data dependency ordering is preserving order on a single thread. All GPUs I'm aware of enforce this.
