ForceAligned in Eigen2 wasn't the same thing as Aligned in Eigen3.

Actually, ForceAligned was very confusing, and didn't mean what it
seemed to. Eigen2 just didn't have any proper support for mapping
aligned buffers.

You should do something like:

#ifdef I_AM_USING_EIGEN3
#define ALIGNED_IF_EIGEN3 Aligned
#else
#define ALIGNED_IF_EIGEN3
#endif

Eigen::Map<Eigen::Vector4f, ALIGNED_IF_EIGEN3> pp;
