Hmm? Even the Intel ABI expects alignment of unsigned long long to be 8
bytes on 32 bit. Do you question that?

Yes.

The linux ABI for x86 (32 bit) only requires 32bit alignment for u64 (etc).

Hmm, u64 on 32 bit is unsigned long long and not unsigned long. Thus I
am actually not sure if the ABI would say anything about that (sorry
also for my wrong statement above).

Alignment requirement of unsigned long long on gcc with -m32 actually
seem to be 8.
