LLVMers, Due to a corner case provided by Robert Mykland, we've decided to do away with alignment in bytecode files. The original reason for alignment has gone away and all it does is add bytes to the file. In Robert's test case, 34% (44KBytes) of the file was thrown needlessly to alignment. While this is a corner case, it certainly can and does happen. Bytecode files with lots of long format (5+ bytes) instructions will now consume only the number of bytes they took. Previously they would be aligned to 8, 12 or even (gasp!) 16 bytes....
