I don't think that was part of the code I originally had, but I suppose this was added for 32bit compatibility? Would this do the right thing with a 32bit target?

I hit the problem when debugging an arm32 target from an x86_64 host and this CL fixes that issue. It will break if a 32bit target use the same "pragma pack" attribute I just removed.

The change have no effect for 64bit targets because symfile_size will be 8 byte aligned independently of the "pragma pack" (because all previous member is 8 byte).
