Aha!  So I changed your printf() to:

	printf ("%p %zd r=%lu\n", d, _Alignof(*d), (uintptr_t)d % 8);

and now:

0x7fb758800000 8 r=0
0x7fb758800018 8 r=0
0x7fb758800030 8 r=0
0x7fb75880004c 8 r=4
0x7fb758800070 8 r=0
0x7fb758800094 8 r=4

Indeed the first non-aligned one crashes.  If I add an 'if' and skip all the non 8 byte aligned ones, -fcatch-undefined-behavior no longer complains.

So this is an OS X bug then?  (I'm pretty sure my code snippet itself is correct.)

Cheers,
