NOTE: Defaulting component because reported component no longer exists
	I just compile this code below and the sizeof yield wrong size for this stucture, haven't tried it at other machine yet. The code is:
	typedef struct tagBITMAPFILEHEADER {
		unsigned short bfType;
		unsigned long   bfSize;
        	unsigned short  bfReserved1;
        	unsigned short  bfReserved2;
        	unsigned long   bfOffBits;
	} BITMAPFILEHEADER;

	When I try to find the size of the structure above using sizeof I get 16 but it supposed to be 14. I suspect that the bug is on the sizeof. And please notify me about this bug (fix, explaination, anything), thank you!

Environment:
System: Linux xhell 2.6.8xhell #3 Tue Aug 31 13:06:30 WIT 2004 i686 unknown unknown GNU/Linux
Architecture: i686

	
host: i486-slackware-linux-gnu
build: i486-slackware-linux-gnu
target: i486-slackware-linux-gnu
configured with: ../gcc-3.3.4/configure --prefix=/usr --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --enable-__cxa_atexit --disable-checking --with-gnu-ld --verbose --target=i486-slackware-linux --host=i486-slackware-linux

How-To-Repeat:
	Just compile any code that use sizeof to find out the size of the structure.

Fix:
	Haven't found any fix yet, but I get around by using sizeof to the elements of the structure

No, it's not; there are two padding bytes before bfSize to ensure it is 4-byte
aligned.
