OK.  Let me clarify this a bit more.  We require at least one
of the following rules to be met:

* the IPv4/IPv6 header is aligned by 8 bytes on reception;
* or the platform provides unaligned exception handlers.

So if your platform violates both rules then it won't work with
the IP stack, simple as that.  Fortunately I don't think such a
platform exists currently on Linux.

Cheers,
