that sounds like a good idea. however, for the case of bind(c), the patch should probably be considered since there the alignment mismatch is a bigger issue.

I think we certainly do not want to rush that decision. I bit of
investigation, seeing what g77 did, what other compilers do, etc. is
certainly necessary before changing an established behaviour.
