Tim: yes, I was expecting that comment. Will definitely do, just wanted to
start the discussion here (you should have seen the patch before:)

Slomo: I think the memtable stuff is not so important here. It's mainly used
for debugging. Also if you get xvimage buffers or such you cannot override the
memory there.

So the questions I have:
* do we want a configure option for the alignment?
  default=<some platform specific value> or even pagesize()
* alingment=pagesize is wasting quite some bytes, 
   but its still okay for use on embedded (atleast for Nokia)
* any issues to make this default if one has posix_memalign, or should it be
only used it one configures with --with-aligned-buffers=<n>
