[Bug libfortran/23770] New: unaligned buffers in i/o library force use of memcpy()

[tkoenig at gcc dot gnu dot org]

Currently, the buffers for reading/writing integers
and reals in the i/o library are of type char[], which forces
the use of memcpy(), as in the fix for PR 23356.  It would
be better for performance if suitable alignment could be
forced on the buffers.
