I suppose the fixme is good enough.  For the record, I think you could do the
check with just two loads -- the first and last quadword.  After that, none of
the other loads can fault, and you can store everything else into the
destination vectors as you read them.

Also missing for the fixme: MO_ALIGN{,_16}.
