--- Comment #1 from Richard Biener <rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
The aligned attribute on types cannot decrease alignment without also
specifying packed.  It can do that when placed on decls.  I didn't expect that
to include 'typedef' decls.

The existing wording in the documentation might need some clarification for
that I guess.

But - is the behavior expected?  I'm not sure...
