[Info-mtools] Alignment trap on arm

[Jacky Cheung]

Hi,

I am trying to compile mattrib for ARM and there are alignment traps when I use mattrib.
When I look into the compilation, I found that gcc is not honoring the "packed" attribute.
Anyone has ran into this same problem? Thanks in advance!

Regards,

Jacky
