Who knows what it does and why? For some reason it has a name

In reality, here's what the Debian version of this patch looks like:

<http://sources.debian.net/src/monsterz/0.7.1-8/debian/patches/010_64-bit-alignment-issues-with-python2.5.diff/>

 I'm not sure if it's all that more helpful, to be honest.

I would say that it is a bit better. Now I at least know that it is
related to Python 2.5 (which we no longer ship) and some 64bit alignment
issues due to it ;D

(In general, if there is no upstream to contribute such fixes to,
it's probably best not to ship such software at all.)

But yes, with dead upstream it is not so funny.
