Good catch. I fixed a couple similar problems (assuming that a local
"char buffer[N]" object would be aligned on better-than-char boundaries)
in xlog.c not long ago. I wonder if any others are lurking?

This is pretty ugly, it'd be better to use a struct of a struct-varlena
header followed by a char[TOAST_MAX_CHUNK_SIZE] data area. Will fix.
