I see. Both would deserve comments, IMHO.

Hello,
PPC EABI targets are currently configured with both BIGGEST_ALIGNMENT and
PREFERRED_STACK_BOUNDARY set to 128, I believe to accomodate
"a long double member within a structure or union shall start at the lowest
available offset aligned on a 16byte boundary"
Besides, for 32bit non-alt
