In a previous attempt (c6cc93bc) I had
tried aligning to 8 bytes under the assumption that the problem was that
the_gc_thread, a StgWord8[], wasn't being aligned to 8-bytes as the
gc_thread struct would expect. However, we actually need even stronger
alignment due to the alignment attribute attached to gen_workspace,
which claims it should be aligned to a 64-byte boundary.

This fixes #15482.
