Yes, I agree.  On thinking about this, it seems like the header files are
probably in error if they are sensitive to this.

For the record.  I changed this:

#define COFF_DEFAULT_SECTION_ALIGNMENT_POWER (2)

to this:

#define COFF_DEFAULT_SECTION_ALIGNMENT_POWER (4)

but I confess that I didn't give much thought to what it did.  I thought
it just changed the alignment of sections rather than the alignment
within sections.

Now that I think of it, the way I did things would change this only
for native compilers, not cross compilers.  That's not right.

Maybe this explains the gcc errors that I've been seeing.
