Modified files:
include ar.h
Log:
Attempt to improve application portability by marking `struct ar_hdr'
as `packed'.
The C standard leaves the alignment of individual members of a C
struct upto the implementation, so pedantically speaking portable
code cannot assume that the layout of a `struct ar_hdr' in memory
will match its layout in a file. Using a __packed attribute
declaration forces file and memory layouts for this structure to
match.
