I got off my fat lazy butt and wrote the following:

#include <stdio.h>

struct foo { int a; long b; };
struct bar { long a[2]; };

int
main(void)
{
        printf("%lu, %lu\n", sizeof(struct foo), sizeof(struct bar));
        return (0);
}

On Alpha (-CURRENT, though, not -STABLE) it prints 16 for both
structures, so it looks like I don't need any hack at all.
