Yes, it does. DEC C generates exactly the same code for "foo" function. So, I am sorry for my wrong testcase. I am trying to find out where unaligned pointer is came from. Going couple functions back I found that it is the address if "unsigned char" variable allocated on stack. Should I look at this issue or it might be possible in theory and I should report about improper coding practice to the author of the code?
