Dear all,

I am wondering about alignment of allocatable arrays: Does the gfortran 
compiler in its latest version automatically align arrays to the 64 byte 
boundary? For comparison, the Intel compiler has a flag "-align 
array64byte", which forces alignment of all arrays (except for the ones 
in COMMON). I did not find something similar in the gfortran documentation.

Background of my question: I would like to use statements like
"!$OMP SIMD ALIGNED(foobar:64)"
in my code, however, this is only appropriate if the compiler indeed 
alignes arrays.

Thank you!
Best regards from Munich
Tobias
