The problem seems to be that the bitfield is given SImode, and thus, being the
only field of its containg struct, the struct is given SImode too. This is
wrong: the struct should be BLKmode for the code to work as expected.
Even if I don't know how the code should actually behave. Should the minimum
alignment proprty of the bitfield also make the structure packed?
