As far as I can tell it isn't a generic fix. They had two functions that always crashed on a misaligned read from __security_cookie so they added a patch that forces the alignment for these functions. Since __security_cookie seems to be a windows specific stack protection mechanism it makes no sense to apply the workaround on all systems. Someone correct me if I got that wrong.
