The unaligned local in __aeabi_uidivmod leads to a store to a 64bit
value at an address that is not divisible by 8 (in grub_divmod64).
The compiler most likely generates a STRD instruction to store it and
this causes an exception.

Fixes Savannah bug #43632.

This includes improvements done by Leif Lindholm.
