Do you mean change _min_dio_alignment() to:
_min_dio_alignment()
{
    dev=$1

    if [ -b "$dev" -a $HOSTOS" == "Linux" ]; then
        blockdev --getss $dev
    else
        $here/src/feature -s
    fi
}

I really don't understand why page size will be the minimum dio alignment?
Do you mean in other OS(except linux), the sector size = page size?

Thanks,
Zorro

Yes, you're right:)
