   This should have been generated as "align 4".  The code generator is broken
in your gcc.   If you have the source, it shouldn't be too difficult to repair,
otherwise put a sed script between the compiler and the assembler to change the
"set .,.+2" to "align 4" (or better yet, in this case, "half 0")
