I wonder how come the problem with asn1_encode_test.c went unnoticed so
far. Objects on stack are customarily aligned at pointer size, even if
their declaration doesn't imply corresponding guarantee. So there are
two options here: a) it's first time it's tested with SPARC Solaris cc
(note that it is regularly tested on SPARC Linux, naturally with gcc);
b) compiler was recently patched/upgraded. Do note that I don't dispute
suggested fix (or compiler's "right" to misalign buf in this case), only
wonder how come it worked so far. Implied question would be what are
other possible implications of b).
