pixblockdsp.h says "align 8" next to s2 which I assume means that the
caller will guarantee the argument is aligned to 8 bytes. It wasn't
aligned in this case which is why the ARM code blew up.

I can reproduce the misalignment on x86 as well. x86 handles misaligned
addresses (with a performance penalty) which is probably why it doesn't
crash there.
