Be warned that __packed doesn't do quite what you think it does.
void func(int *p) {
*p = 0;
}
If you pass an unaligned pointer into this function on a strict-alignment
platform, your program will likely crash. I am unaware of any attribute
that can inform the compiler that 'p' may be

I took a look at how libasr does it, and I have similar code ie. pack8(),
Half the cpu platforms fault on unaligned access.
There are strategies for handling this. Your code must use them.
It is kind of boring, actually.

Hi David,
I'm going to upgrade to -current and then report back.. it'll take me a few
days to do that (I'm super

Ok it'll take me a bit to test on current, as I don't have that fix yet.
Thanks a lot! I'll come
I don't speak ktrace but looks like alignment problems with a stack

If not, test on current.
