Fixed as of current sources: the first entry of src/template/.similar
now reads
alpha[a-z0-9]*-unknown-linux-gnu=linux_alpha

Can't help you with that, since I don't have access to a machine like
yours. It's fairly likely that the platform-specific code for Alpha in
src/include/storage/s_lock.h or src/backend/storage/buffer/s_lock.c
is not being compiled or is being compiled wrong. Check whether the
right #define symbols are being set on your platform. s_lock.c can
be compiled as a stand-alone test program, if you need it.
