The LWP code ends up with a misaligned stack for the green thread and it's
kind of messy to track down a fix that works on all OS versions and with
all compilers.

The ports collection makefile adds -mstackrealign for clang, to work around
this issue.  The hope is that for OpenAFS 2.0 we'll have LWP entirely gone
and not need to worry about this any more...
