Yeah, I had noticed the failure but didn't have access to an alpha to
investigate.

Thanks for the analysis and working on a patch. I'll note that
_Alignas, if it had worked, would likely have been too new a compiler
feature to use.
It looks like Debian's ia64 porterbox is still running, so I can try
reproducing the problem there (using prctl to force SIGBUS) and then
fiddling around with the code.
Cheers,
