If I type " arm-rtems-gcc ... -fpack-struct ... ", there is no error happening, but the structures in my program will not be packed.

I had problems using arm-linux-gcc 2.95.2 in another project. At the
very least, it generates incorrect code when it optimises 32-bit
constant loading/generation.

This is where it replaced a 32 bit load of a constant from memory with
two instructions to build it using immediates. My assumption was that
the machine description for some ARM instructions was incorrect.

arm gcc 2.95.3 is working fine for me.
