Commit d8352646900c6316af8e2967742ce6a438b04221 should have fixed this,
but apparently it's not enough. I'm just going to change the donna code
to not align to 16 byte boundaries on ARM since that's only there for the
SSE2 code in the first place.
On the off chance that the code does gain NEON support the penalty for
unaligned access isn't that severe (there are load/store forms that
require alignment, in which case the code will crash), but when that
happens we can revisit this issue.
