[Bug c/39373] New: attribute ((aligned)) for stack variables is ignored without warning

[balrogg at gmail dot com]

For a non-static local variable with __attribute__ ((aligned (0x40))) gcc 4.3.3
makes no attempt in the generated code to align the variable and emitts no
warning about that.  Same if the type has the attribute specified instead of
the variable (the types I tried were an array of 6 uint64_t's or a struct
containing the array as a member).
