This is an alternative to creating a union with a @code{double} member
that forces the union to be double-word aligned.
-It is not possible to specify the alignment of functions; the alignment
-of functions is determined by the machine's requirements and cannot be
-changed. You cannot specify alignment for a typedef name because such a
-name is just an alias, not a distinct type.

As in the preceding examples, you can explicitly specify the alignment
(in bytes) that you wish the compiler to use for a given variable or
structure field. Alternatively, you can leave out the alignment factor
