What kind of testcase requires this? The issue was detected while building FFmpeg. It creates structures, most likely for AVX optimization. For instance: float __attribute__((aligned (32))) large_aligned_array[3]; BIGGEST_ALIGNMENT could be up to 512 bits on x64. This patch has been added to cover this case without needing to change the FFmpeg code. Regards, Evgeny
