That's strange, since Line 3 is taken almost verbatim from the HP-UX
manual you mentioned. I looked for other people who have run into the
problem, and found only this bug report dated 2007:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=468114
with no followup.
Looking through the HP-UX manuals, maybe the 'aligned' attribute is
supported only in GCC mode? What happens if you compile with 'cc
+std=gnu'? or with 'cc +std=gcc', or 'cc -Agnu', or 'cc -Agcc'? See
pages 13-14 of:

The revised patch to the stdalign module looks good to me; thanks.
