Ah. From so metag is a new arch and not a compiler like the changelog
says.

This is not the code we are discussing. It should look like:
struct a {
union {
short x;
short y;
}
short z;
};
Any normal person would assume that sizeof(struct a) would be 4 but
apparently on metag it is 8. That totally defeats the point of using
a union in the first place. It's easy enough to add a __packed to the
lustre declaration but I expect this to cause an endless stream of bugs.
It it is really stupid.
