`indexWord8ArrayAsWord64#` not working on ARM?
During [this bytestring PR](https://github.com/haskell/bytestring/pull/471) we found that the following code causes [a segfault on ARM](https://cloud.drone.io/haskell/bytestring/294/1/2) Linux (32bit) (tested with GHC-8.10.1 and 8.10.7): ```hs reverse :: ShortByteString -> ShortByteString reverse = \sbs -> let l = length sbs ba = asBA sbs in create l (\mba -> go ba mba l) where go :: BA -> MBA s -> Int -> ST s () go !ba !mba !l = case l `quotRem` 8 of (0, r) -> void $ goWord8Chunk 0 r (q, 0) -> goWord64Chunk 0 0 q (q, r) -> do i' <- goWord8Chunk 0 r goWord64Chunk i' 0 q where goWord64Chunk !off !i !cl | i >= cl = return () | otherwise = do let w = indexWord64Array ba (off + (i * 8)) writeWord64Array mba (cl - 1 - i) (byteSwap64 w) goWord64Chunk off (i+1) cl goWord8Chunk !i !cl | i >= cl = return i | otherwise = do let w = indexWord8Array ba i writeWord8Array mba (l - 1 - i) w goWord8Chunk (i+1) cl indexWord64Array :: BA -> Int -> Word64 indexWord64Array (BA# ba#) (I# i#) = W64# (indexWord8ArrayAsWord64# ba# i#) writeWord64Array :: MBA s -> Int -> Word64 -> ST s () writeWord64Array (MBA# mba#) (I# i#) (W64# w#) = ST $ \s -> case writeWord64Array# mba# i# w# s of s -> (# s, () #) ``` When replaced with a variant that only uses `indexWord8Array`/`writeWord8Array` the issue was gone. We've been speculating about issues due to unaligned access, for which a CPP like [this](https://github.com/haskell/bytestring/blob/5efd6b504eccf89feba13a6bf5e0e26eed780da9/Data/ByteString/Builder/Prim/Internal.hs#L202-L208) is used in other places. However @Bodigrim suggested this should maybe be handled by `indexWord8ArrayAsWord64#`? Is this expected?
