There used to be four bytes of padding in the struct on systems with
32bit pointers. Moving the pointers down so that they are in between the
64bit and 32bit fields means that there'll never be any padding.

There may, however, be some extra padding at the end of the struct to
make the size a multiple of 8. Since we use the name field as a sort of
"flexible array member", we don't particularly care about that padding
and just want to allocate enough memory to hold the struct and the name
field. offsetof() allows us to do that without relying on compiler
support for flexible array members.
