    Oh, well in that case, please may I submit this alternative patch:

    2000-08-27  Nick Clifton  <nickc@redhat.com>

	* tree.c (make_node): Initialise DECL_ALIGN and TYPE_ALIGN to
	BITS_PER_UNIT not 1, since alignments are now in bits not
	bytes.

We discussed this once before.  These default values really shouldn't be
used, so one could argue they should be setting it to zero.  Why are
incompletely laid-out types or objects being used?
