Description
In HttpServer there are non-aligned writes in the response, mainly in the form of
- write some string
- right where the string ends, write an int or long value with no regards that the address is aligned for these types
This passes on x86, and it should work on more recent ARM since v6 which was released back in ~2002 (details), but not generally on all CPUs.

I think it's not worth it trying to fix this until we come across a case where it's a real problem (which is very unlikely).
