Well, we do have an error and GCC 9.2 shows this. I don't know why other versions don't issue this warning. This new commit message might still concentrate too much on the GCC version, but I think it's ok. I just wanted to prevent someone reading this in the future and taking it as a hint that the attribute 'packed' can be removed (which in turn might procude bugs on some platforms).
