Attribute align does not work that way for arrays. ints have size 32
bits, and thus a random array element has only 32-bit alignment. Even
if we align the base address of A to 128 bits, A[1] is that address plus
32-bits, and thus can only have 32-bit alignment. If you want each
array element to have 128-bit alignment, then the array elements must
each be 128-bits in size.
