[Bug target/23539] C & C++ compiler generating misaligned references regardless of compiler flags

Here is a short program that duplicates the problem.

------------------ test.cc ------------------------
struct foo {
   char bar1;
   char bar2;
   char bar3;
};


class bar2 {
private:
   static foo   myFubarStruct;

public:

   static void fbs(foo fubarStruct);
};

foo bar2::myFubarStruct;

class bar1 {
private:
   int rVal1;
   int rVal2;

public:
   void doFoo(void);
};

void bar1::doFoo(void) {

   foo barStruct;

   barStruct.bar1 = 'A';
   barStruct.bar2 = 'B';
   barStruct.bar3 = 'C';

   bar2::fbs(barStruct);
}

void bar2::fbs(foo fubarStruct) {
   myFubarStruct = fubarStruct;
}


int main(int argc, char **argv) {

   bar1   baar;

   baar.doFoo();

   return (0);
}

------------------ end of test.cc ------------------------------

The test app was just compiled to object code as shown below with the -mstrict-
align option.

(2)> ppcg++ -mstrict-align -c test.cc

Then an objdump was done to dump the assembly (shown below)

(3)> ppcobjdump -C -S test.o

test.o:     file format elf32-powerpc

Disassembly of section .text:
