Re: [Insight-developers] FEM debian test failures



First, I can't imagine how you figured this out. You are starting to
become a legend in your time...

Why not #ifdef your solution. Something like:

#if (__GNUC__ == 4.7)
  InputVectorType m_MatrixScale __attribute__ ((aligned) );
#else
  InputVectorType m_MatrixScale;
#endif
