I noticed that a lot of the vector code assumes that there is
no padding between vector elements.  For example, the size is
assumed to be the primitive size of the element times the number
of elements.  However for x86 long double the primitive size is
80 bits while elements will be spaced by 96/128 bits (depending
on the os) in order to maintain alignment.  There's a similar
problem for vectors of apints.
