 * <http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/signal.h.html>
 * says: "For some implementations, the value of si_addr may be inaccurate."
 * In this case, the returned fault address is rounded down to a multiple of
 * getpagesize() = sysconf(_SC_PAGESIZE).
 * On such platforms, we define SIGSEGV_FAULT_ADDRESS_ALIGNMENT to be an upper
 * bound for getpagesize() (and, like getpagesize(), also a power of 2).
 * On the platforms where the returned fault address is the precise one, we
 * define SIGSEGV_FAULT_ADDRESS_ALIGNMENT to 1.
