--- Comment #8 from Andrew Pinski <pinskia at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
An obvious workaround is to have a type which is also aligned to what you want
the global to be aligned to and that will work.

typedef int __attribute__((vector_size(16))) v4si; 
typedef v4si __attribute__((aligned(4))) v4sia4; 
v4sia4 a4 __attribute__((aligned(4))); 

or:
typedef int __attribute__((aligned(1))) inta1;
inta1 __attribute__((aligned(1))) var;

or for the case in PR 102162 :

typedef unsigned int u32a1  __attribute__((__aligned__(1)));

 extern u32a1  output_len __attribute__((__aligned__(1)));
