I haven't run into that one. Looking at jitforms.pp, the code checks whether
the PTypeData points to the location after Typeinfo.name and raises the
exception if it isn't the case. To be confirmed by the developer that wrote
the code but I guess the purpose was to anticipate alignment problems such
as the one I fixed. If that is the case then the check could simply be
removed.

While I was trying to provoke a misalignment in jitforms.pp by changing the
name of the component I ran into another alignment problem in StdCodeTools.
Yet another location where pointer arithmetic is used to get ppropinfo from
typedata. I guess we'll have to weed them out as they are encountered...
