Is this documented anywhere? It is an important issue because a performance hit such as unaligned accesses silently happening is difficult to see and it tends to be accounted for as RTEMS not performing or hardware not performing. Is this something we could test for and check? I personally have never stopped and checked a BSP for correct alignment in all cases or the critical cases before using and when something exposes it I have been surprised.
