* Replace _Py_ALIGN_AS(V) by _Py_ALIGNED_DEF(N, T) This is now a common façade for the various `_Alignas` alternatives, which behave in interesting ways -- see the source comment. The new macro (and MSVC's `__declspec(align)`) should not be used on a variable/member declaration that includes a struct declaraton. A workaround is to separate the struct definition. Do that for `PyASCIIObject.state`. * Specify minimum PyGC_Head and PyObject alignment As documented in InternalDocs/garbage_collector.md, the garbage collector stores flags in the least significant two bits of the _gc_prev pointer in struct PyGC_Head. Consequently, this pointer is only capable of storing a location that's aligned to a 4-byte boundary. Encode this requirement using _Py_ALIGNED_DEF. This patch fixes a segfault in m68k, which was previously investigated by Adrian Glaubitz here: https://lists.debian.org/debian-68k/2024/11/msg00020.html https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1087600 Original patch (using the GCC-only Py_ALIGNED) by Finn Thain.
