But aligning it for mmap() is a good point - though we should use
8 instead of 4 I guess, since some platforms have 8 bytes as
their natural alignment.
mmap()ed data are always page aligned. And this really isn't
relevant in this case, because the alignment within the package
file is completely irrelevant to mmap()ing contained files.
Yes, the start of the data is always page-aligned. What I meant is
making contained data structures 8-byte aligned, like the start of
the heap, the TOC, etc.
