Subject: [PATCH] ext2fs: fix undeclared posix_memalign() warning

Older distros do not define posix_memalign() by default in the
headers.  If ext2fs.h is included early in the headers, it is
possible to "#define _XOPEN_SOURCE 600" so that the stdlib.h
header will define it, but if ext2fs.h is included after stdlib.h
there is no posix_memalign() declaration.

Add a posix_memalign() declaration if stdlib.h didn't do it.  This
is a bit of a hack for GNU headers, but it works on Linux and OS/X
without problems.
