I could be wrong, but I think so. As I understand, align(N) only aligns it *within the structure*.
If you are at 0 offset, you are aligned on all N already, so I don't see why it would add padding before the first member of a struct.

Would that even be true in the case where you specify a alignment ( keeping in mind that the alignment is for that specific variable)?
