Instead of assuming that the system can safely do unaligned access
to memory use packed structures to allow the compiler generate
best code possible.
For instance ARM7 can use unaligned access but not for 64 bit
numbers (currently these accesses are emulated by Linux kernel
with obvious performance consequences).
