Thank you for the report and sorry for the breakage.

This should be fixed in commit 41ee91c64f47faaa by skipping the
alignment of the data area, if PAGE_SIZE is not defined.

An alternative approach would have been to define PAGE_SIZE to a
sane default value of 4096 (as used on most current architectures
by default), if not set in the build environment.

If there is consensus that this would be more appropriate (since
it matches what the man page says), I'd revert the latest commit
and instead of it commit the following change:
