Given an alignment >16-bytes, eg
.file "foo.c"
.data
.globl _x
.align 32
_x:
.long 1065353216
.space 28
gas for PE-COFF targets fails to set section alignment flags correctly,
but always uses default. So
as foo.s | objdump -x gives
Sections:
Idx Name Size VMA LMA File off Algn
0 .text 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 2**4
CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, CODE
1 .data 00000020 00000000 00000000 0000008c 2**4 < should be 2**5
ALLOC, LOAD, DATA
2 .bss 00000000 00000000 00000000 00000000 2**4
ALLOC
Nor is there any warning that alignment is being set to default.
