### Description

There was a memory alignment bug in the library Gaim uses to access the
Gadu-Gadu network. This bug can not be exploited on x86 architectures. This bug
was recently fixed in the libgadu library, but also needed to be fixed in Gaim
because Gaim includes a copy of the libgadu library.

### Mitigation

The vulnerable section of code was modified to work correctly on all
architectures.
