And behind door number 3 is to fix the compiler ... but that also
seems to be contentious (and doesn't help people who are already
using gcc4).

Is the simulator in error by only half loading when the structure
is on a 4-byte boundary ... if so, then my 2nd choice would be to
fix it there.

But ... since the fix is small, I could put it into the kernel
as a last resort to get things working again.  Do you really need
to align(16)? Or would (8) do?  A comment mentioning that this
is a workaround for a compiler and/or simulator issue would be
good.
