No it can't. At best you can implement it via realloc + malloc + memcpy,
but even then you do not get the correct realloc semantics.
It might be possible to do it by also saving the malloc'd size and not
just the offset when memalign hack is enabled.
Anyway we still lack even the slightest hint what exactly is going
wrong, if you are fixing a bug without knowing what is wrong you are
doing it wrong no matter how good your "fix" is.
