Is that a requirement in the standard?

C11 6.2.8 "Alignment of objects" includes the following sentence: "Every valid alignment value shall be a nonnegative integral power of two."
Packing needs to be evaluated as part of the definition of the type while alignment applies also when using a type. The position of the attribute also requires extra care as some positions are accepted by GCC (and warned about by Clang) while actually being ignored. Fixes: diffblue#8443
