Performs unaligned access on SPARC64
(Filed under Architecture: sparc, since there's no sparc64 in the dropdown...)
Trying to build GHC on sparc64 currently crashes with a SIGBUS (unaligned access). This is because sparc64 uses the C backend (only 32-bit sparc has native code gen), but is unaware that it can't perform unaligned accesses.
