strictly speaking the algorithm doesn't require that the "aligning type" (which
seems to be i1 these days) has alignment 1, what it requires is that no type has
a smaller alignment than it.  For example, it would work if i1 had an alignment
of 2 as long as all types have alignment at least 2.

Ciao,
