I was ask andrew@, and he test it with ARM EABI, and it compiled fine with size 8. So if somebody will fix it, please #ifdef that fix to make it only with old ARM ABI. Or, better help with EABI testing :-D Thanks!

The easiest way to hack around this is usually to sprinkle packed decorators on a lot of structure definitions. It also didn't get rid of the huge number of cast increases required alignment of target type warnings. How troublesome these are depends on the processor. I think the ARMv6 on the RaspberryPi is late enough to support misaligned accesses. It's a big performance hit but better than crashing.

Given the version numbers you quote, I expect that a newer glib would be a good start.
