What does 12-bit alignment even _mean_ on an 8-bit-addressing-unit machine (which IIRC includes everything NetBSD runs on)? Does it differ from 3-byte alignment in any practical sense? Do the interfaces even support alignment to other than a power of two? /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [email protected] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
