If anyone wants a local solution to this problem, there are a set of patches in gnu/26083 that add a set of alignment contol options for the Alpha (mirroring what's available for i386). David O'Brien is unwilling to commit them for various reasons (which I accept) but this functionality exists in gcc-3.
