I thought this gcc issue was ia64 specific at first.
But it seems to be generic (non-arch specific) issue.
http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16660
(The patch exists, but it doesn't seem to be included in the main line yet.)

Does the current xencomm_map_no_alloc() work on powerpc properly?
At least my powerpc64-linux-gcc (gcc 4.1.1) doesn't seem to support
__attribute__((aligned(32))) on stack variables.

thanks,
