Comment:

 This has effectively been fixed by lephilousophe in commit
 `6a1abd09f1959b1a2123832128f85f06d0b91b54` ("COMMON: Make sure coroutine
 Process parameter is well aligned") as part of PR#5148 (which has also
 been backported to the 2.7.1 release).

 Running my Discworld games on that MIPS device (or on x86 with
 -fsanitize=alignment), I'm not seeing any memory alignment issue anymore.
 No need for the memcpy() calls I've suggested above.

 Closing this then, thanks!
