Sorry no. It is on my list, but it is at a very low priority for me. Of
course you could always have a go yourself....
For example in bfd/pei-x86_64.c around line 50 there is:
{ COFF_SECTION_NAME_PARTIAL_MATCH (".text"), \
COFF_ALIGNMENT_FIELD_EMPTY, COFF_ALIGNMENT_FIELD_EMPTY, 4 }, \
If you changed the 4 to a 1 that might then give you 1-byte alignment for the
.text section. I have not tried this myself, but it is worth having a go if
you feel inclined.
Cheers
Nick
