CODEGEN-4304  "runtime failure on unaligned access (on some processor variants, not all)":

I see that this has a test case attached to it, but no further analysis.  This does not seem to be a case where the user has done something wrong, leading to an unaligned access, but rather some kind of issue with the compiler or library.  What are the scenarios that can trigger this problem?

This one has only been partially analyzed.  No firm conclusions about the cause are available.

Can you please update us on this issue?
