Re: Bug#1105110: python3.14 FTBFS on m68k: Assertion `!PyStackRef_IsTaggedInt(ref)' failed



Hello,

They don't care about this patch. I will switch the default alignment to 4 bytes in the following months since it makes absolutely no sense to use an alignment which contradicts the official SysV ABI documentation.

Why couldn't the alignment be changed along with the ABI change for 64 bit time?

https://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/64bit-time

FWIW, NetBSD uses 4 bytes alignment on m68k which means they don't have to rely
on constantly having to patch projects to build with 2 byte alignment.

Even the sun2 port, which is for the m68010 (an actual machine which might benefit from a 2 byte alignment) uses 4 byte alignment in NetBSD.
