Is there a way to get the address of a buffer object? I need to store
the address of a buffer in a structure that I'll pack with
alien.struct.pack. The only solution I have found till now involves
creating another buffer just to store and later retrieve the address
of the first one.
I used a buffer in a short test of Alien:

I am not sure if it answers your question, as I used it in a function 
call, not a structure.
