I doubt whether it is > necessary to keep a 16-byte aligned .text section in every object. Here is a link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/debug/pe-format Although I agree that I cannot find an actual requirement for 16-byte alignment in that document. I am not an expert on the PE format however, so the requirement may be in there, just hidden. I would suggest that you ask about this on the cygwin mailing list as there are many PE experts there: https://www.cygwin.com/lists.html Cheers Nick -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
