HELP!

The -misalign flag on the Sun "cc" compiler allows code with misaligned
data, eg int's not on a 4-byte boundary, to work correctly. As
far as I can see, there is no way in gcc to make this work. Have I
missed something, and/or are there any plans to remedy this in a 
later release.

Patrick.
