I just wanted to bring this discussion back to the surface since it has been
silent for a few days. I would really like to see this issue resolved as
soon as possible. There has not been a real response to my suggestion of
the following change. It eliminates the unaligned access warnings on TRU64
but I do not know if it is appropriate for other platforms. Should I file a
bug report, or is there someone willing to work with me to find a solution
and submit the change to the code pool?
Thanks
Kari
