I've never used -fpack-struct, but AFAICT, all -fpack-struct does is to
globally do the same as __attribute__((packed)) does to individual
structs.

So if your target does not support packing, -fpack-struct also probably
will not help you.

You'll have to redesign your code, if you want your code to be portable.
