    Make memalign print useful messages on failure
    
    Brevity is the soul of wit, except for error messages;
    then it's a sign of witlessness. I can say this because
    this error message may be my fault, although it is lost
    in the 20th century code base so who knows.
    
    Anyway, when memalign dies, it's not a bad idea to have
    a lot of information about what went wrong. So instead
    of the terse single bit of "something failed" this patch
    changes things to be a bit more useful.
