On an ARM-powered system the game will not compile because of compiler flag -wcast-align, which throws an error for all u8* upcasts (e.g. in BufferCullMeshSceneNode.cpp:193 v = (const video::S3DVertex*)( (u8*)v + vSize );).
"...unaligned access is generally best avoided in ARM." See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/25762173/why-does-wcast-align-not-warn-about-cast-from-char-to-int-on-x86

However, this seems to be a generic approach in Irrlicht, so maybe we will just not support ARM technology. To be discussed.

Note:
good testing platform is Jolla phone ;)
