No the compiler should be able to load the packed struct no matter
what. If that means doing byte by byte loads then so be it.

I think gcc should issue an error for
typedef struct { _Decimal128 f __attribute__((packed)); } packed;
typedef struct { __m128 f __attribute__((packed)); } packed;
when there is a hardware alignment requirement on a field to be
packed.
