The linker script shows that __preinit_array_start is aligned by
ALIGN(${ALIGNMENT}). It doesn't matter what alignment .preinit_array
uses. A target has to make sure all __*_array_start are aligned
properly. The current elf.sc assumes ALIGN(${ALIGNMENT}) will align
all __*_array_start correctly. It seems to work for ia32 and ia64.
