Well - does packed structures work, anyway? What does the assembler do
when accessing unaligned words? (I don't know - I've never used packed
structures.)

Well - I guess the Correct solution would be to use ua* stuff only
when needed (in packed structure members). How is this solved on other
processors that doesn't support unaligned memory accesses?
