Have you seen:
d5f8bd9c503e0a17ef071eec50c537cc82a7956c ("lds: align RO_DATA_SECTION members")
which was recently committed to master?

It looks like the two patches fixes the same.
Expect that you have much higher alignment demands in a few cases (ia32, x86).

Could you verify if things works on latest master or you still need
additional alignment?

Thanks,
	Sam
