i've done so, will send it a bit later.

meanwhile i've learned a possibility how to change the definition of
CYGBLD_ATTRIB_ALIGN in such a way as to allow no argument.

-#define CYGBLD_ATTRIB_ALIGN(__align__)    __attribute__((aligned(__align__)))
+#define CYGBLD_ATTRIB_ALIGN(__align__...) __attribute__((aligned(__align__)))

makes it possible to write
char stack[200] CYGBLD_ATTRIB_ALIGN();
and gcc will decide itself whats neccesairy

do you accept and or like this change ?

or would you prefer something like
char stack[200] CYGBLD_ATTRIB_ALIGN(CYGARC_ALIGNMENT);
not so beautiful i think
