A char array on the stack is not guaranteed to have more than byte
alignment. This means that casting it to a 'struct cmsghdr' and
accessing its members may result in unaligned access. This will
generate SIGBUS on strict alignment architectures like OpenBSD/sparc64.
The solution is to use a union to force proper alignment.

Given that the equivalent diff for xcb has been merged, iss Matthieu's
approval enough for me to push this?
Yes, please go ahead and push.
