These changes are not enough to run smbfs on sparc64. AFAIK, ppc allows
non-aligned memory access(with additional penalty) while sparc64/alpha
and ia64 does not. We have to find out all instances of code which smbfs
assumes it can access memory even though it's not aligned correctly.

Anyway, thanks for committing mchain.h. It's prerequsite to smbfs on
sparc64.
