Patch by Dale Talcott. Force nh_result to be aligned on a 64-bit boundary.

When using the umac-64 algorithm on IA64 numberous 'unaligned access'
warnings occur at runtime for both the client and server. These 
potentially affect performance and can be quite disturbing to users.

Err, the attachment contains the text:
~/src/openssh/patches/5.0p1/openssh-umac-unaligned.diff

The contents of the file would be more helpful :-)

Doh! Sorry about that. Hopefully it worked this time.
