Hi,

I wonder if there is a way for gas to generate an object with section 
alignment less than 4.

$ echo nop | m68k-elf-as -o a.o

$ m68k-elf-objdump -h a.o

a.o:     file format elf32-m68k

Sections:
Idx Name          Size      VMA       LMA       File off  Algn
   0 .text         00000002  00000000  00000000  00000034  2**2
                   CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, READONLY, CODE
   1 .data         00000000  00000000  00000000  00000038  2**2
                   CONTENTS, ALLOC, LOAD, DATA
   2 .bss          00000000  00000000  00000000  00000038  2**2

I would like to get Algn = 2**1 for all sections.
Is it possible to achieve that? How?

Cheers,
