I understand your quandary.
For me "Win32" == "32 bits" == "4 bytes" == "sizeof(ubiquitous machine

So why on earth, since Visual Studio 2001 (and before?), was the default
alignment set to 8 bytes for the M$ C/C++ compiler code generation
option? This I just do not understand (so, of course, enlightenment is
welcome).

If I recall correctly, doubles require 8-byte alignment. So you object
therefore must require 8-byte alignment.
