Bug#674908: Patch

Hi,

Attached is a patch against 10.0.12esr which (hopefully) fixes a bunch
of unaligned memory accesses described in my previous update. It's not 
pretty, but a browser compiled with this patch is good enough to 
browse www.cnn.com and gmail.com without crashing, and compiler should 
be smart enough to optimize away all its effects on arches other than 
sparc.

You probably want to run it past some upstream maintainer before 
applying, but it is definitely an improvement compared to current 
testing version. I'll make the binaries available and ask people on 
debian-sparc to test.

Best regards,
