Even without strict-aliasing, C does not allow casting pointers to types
that don't match their alignment. After this change, UBSan is happy with
our code at default settings but for the negative left shift language
bug.
Note: architectures without unaligned loads do not generate the same
code for memcpy and pointer casts. But even ARMv6 can perform unaligned
loads and stores (ARMv5 couldn't), so we should be okay here.
