I'll remind of the comments added to our asm/system.h:
168 /* From: "Jim Hull" <jim.hull of hp.com>
169    I've attached a summary of the change, but basically, for PA 2.0, as
170    long as the ",CO" (coherent operation) completer is specified, then the
171    16-byte alignment requirement for ldcw and ldcd is relaxed, and instead
172    they only require "natural" alignment (4-byte for ldcw, 8-byte for
173    ldcd). */

So the alignment requirement is 16 only for PA1.x binaries.
