Comment(by nickm):

 For our uses, I believe we could just "#if 0" out the functions using
 posix_memalign entirely: we don't use those functions in Tor.

 The writev ones are for last-minute error reporting, so we can't do much
 more on an error than ignore it. So for them, we could add a cast to void
 to suppress the warning.
