Still risky.

Here's a different idea. Define a new aligned u64 type and use that
on i386 too.

Like

/* Must be #define because __attribute__ doesn't work on typedefs */
#define __aligned_u64 unsigned long long __attribute__((aligned(8)))


Then use __aligned_u64 instead of plain __u64 in all user visible parts. 
Should DTRT in all cases.
