it does preserve order of members, so processed source is compatible 
with unprocessed source.
it does not read any variable alignment information(except c++ bitfield 
size) and I don't see a reason to do that.
but in case you need that it can be added quite easily, search for 
"Parse(object<MemberVariable" in gcc/parse.cpp. there's a switch which 
also handles FIELD_DECLs you can get alignment info from.
