I don't think we should use __alignof__, what if it is different among
arches with the same endianity. locale-archive format should be only
endianess dependent, not anything else.
Furthermore, all but one alignment is unnecessary, and in that one case
(enlarge_archive's
newhead.locrectab_offset = newhead.string_offset + newhead.string_size;
) it is IMHO better to make sure string_size is always multiple of 4, like:
