It's for everything (there is no such thing as a "code constant" or
"code variable"). The directive is named {$codealign xxx} because IIRC
originally it only supported changing the alignment of procedures and
jump targets.

True, although that is a bug in the compiler (it should re-align the
stack if necessary). I did not mention this, because FPC does not allow
defining constants on the stack.
