I've played with this patch and recognize that it's not that
simple, unfortunately.  -mdalign changes not only alignment
of doubles but also calling conventions.  If you compile

void foo () { bar (1, 0x12345678abcd5555LL); }

with/without -mdalign, for example, you can see that effect.
This behavior with -mdalign is consistent from 3.4.
It seems that such change is too big for SH2A users.  Perhaps
this was one reason of not defaulting -mdalign for SH2A.
