Data alignment

[Silvio Bandeira]

Hi,

   I'm using gcc in a AIX 4.2.1 box and I'd like to know if there's an 
option to tell the compiler I want all my data aligned with 1 byte 
boundary. I saw the "packed" attribute in gcc manual, but I'd find it 
more simple and portable if I didn't need to put it hardwared in the code.

   Thanks in advance for any information.

   Best regards.
