I need to be able to compile a C file on Unix which accesses data defined with
VAXC alignment.  I'm unable to compile the entire file with -mvaxc-alignment as
the source file makes use of Unix primitives (which require default structure
alignment).  What I'd like to have is something like a #pragma vaxc-alignment
and #pragma default-alignment to enable/disable vaxc-alignment for a section 
of code.

Has anybody encountered this problem, and have a solution or recommendations on
a soultion?  Any help would be appreciated.
