It looks like treating this 64-bit structure as a double-word
object is decided very early by the compiler, before the block-move
functionality which already handles alignment better. It looks like the
SLOW_UNALIGNED_ACCESS macro needs to be expanded to accept mode and
align arguments instead of defining a new SUFFICIENTLY_ALIGNED macro.
