Has anyone used ld as a cross linker where the host and target
machines have the same byte order, but the host machine has stricter
alignment requirements?

I have tried to do this with an hp9k800 as the host and an hp9k300 as
the target.  It appears that each relocatable chunk in the input is
aligned to a two-byte boundary. Either the input or the output ends up
not being word-aligned, and then ld dumps core trying to copy it.
