Could someone explain this to me?

In various places RAND_add is called with sizeof a struct and the number
of fields.  Each of the fields is used to gather a byte of entropy.  I
don't understand how this works seeing that, due to field padding, we
can't quite tell where the fields begin.

Is this a bug or do I just not understand that bit of code?
