Thanks for the responses.

I'm using gcc to generate data tables for a flash device in an 
embedded system(no executable code).  I'm developing under Linux, but 
others are using XP.  I was hoping to avoid having to build a cross 
environment by having XP developers just use the standard mingw or 
cygwin tools.  I didn't expect the pe-i386 target to add the extra 
alignment bytes after my data.  If there's not an easy way to avoid 
this with the standard mingw or cygwin, I'll have to step back and 
assess whether I want to have to build and support a cross environment 
just for this.

thanks,
galen
