4.13 final builds fine for me when building for a DP264 alpha config.
But I do recommend you revert 6cd9dc3e75078ef646076fa63adfb9b85ced0b66
(mm/compaction.c: fix zoneindex in kcompactd()) in your build of the
kernel for Alpha as it causes random segfaults in user space.
Unfortunately no one took any notice when I reported this some time
ago.
Cheers
Michael.
