I'm wondering the same. My theory is that it might only actually matter
when built optimized; which few animals do. The instruction selection
definitely can influence whether an alignment issue becomes aparent or
not. Unless that idea pans out I guess I'll have to go through the
motions to get access to that porter box. I had that at some point in
the past (debugging something turning out to be a compiler bug).
