Over half the SeaMonkey-Ports pages are in flames now because alecf checked in a
change to prefapi.cpp which uses PR_ALIGN_OF_WORD. This is apparently defined
on win32, mac & linux but nowhere else.

PR_ALIGN_OF_WORD is not documented and should not be
used in new code. We keep the existing definitions
of PR_ALIGN_OF_WORD and similar macros for backward
compatibility.
Another problem with PR_ALIGN_OF_WORD is that the "word"
refers to the word of the Java virtual machine. (This is
a vestige of NSPR's prior role as the underpinnings of
Netscape port of Sun JVM.) Therefore, this "word" is
most likely not what you think it is.

Can we move the PR_WORD_OF_ALIGN define into the NO_NSPR_10_SUPPORT ifndef ?

The NO_NSPR_10_SUPPORT macro was created to make it easier
for people to migrate from NSPR 1.0 to the current NSPR.
Not all the obsolete and deprecated NSPR stuff is for
NSPR 1.0 support.
