+       * src/buffer.c (record_buffer_aligned): New var.
+       (init_buffer): Use it to ensure that the buffer is aligned.
+       This doesn't result in any measurable performance improvement
+       on my host (Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 stable, with default block size),
+       but I assume it does help on some hosts.
+
        * lib/.cvsignore: Add unistd_.h.  Sort.
