The sizeof() call should reference buffer.data, because that's the buffer we're reading data into, not the whole PGAlignedBuffer union. This was introduced by 44cac93464, which replaced the simple buffer with a PGAlignedBuffer field. It's benign, because the buffer is the largest field of the union, so the sizes are the same. But it's easy to trip over this in a patch, so fix and backpatch. Commit 44cac93464 went into 12, but that's EOL.
