This isn't a compile option that is distro-wide: you can add or edit a 
line to your initscripts that pokes /proc how you like and you're 
segfaulting away any time you like assuming your hardware doesn't fix 
them up magically already.

Personally I see zero alignment faults from kernel or userspace right 
now and my hardware doesn't fix up.  There's no huge mountain of 
problems to find and clean: wise ancients that went before us have done 
almost all the work.

We just need to solve any few lurking about or that are introduced in 
future, default to log + fix is enough and anyone that wants to have a 
"kill on sight" policy can override it.
