You're missing the point.  You and I (not to mention anybody who ever
reads this code in the future) have already wasted more time talking
about it and trying to understand it than you will ever save by using
IS_ALIGNED.

The difference to the computer is minimal at best.  Make things easier 
for the programmers.
