If an odd number of data bytes is inserted in the .text section, this
uninformative message is generated. Two easy ways to avoid doing that are:

o  Put the data in a section that does not contain code. (Or at the end
   of a code section.)

o  In assembler, insert a:
   .align 1

   after the data, to make the code (byte) address even again.
   The 'C' syntax is along the lines of:

   __attribute__ ((aligned (n)))          /* Try n=1, then n=2 */

   (Haven't tried it in 'C', so can't guarantee that the alignment
   argument is 2^n, as it is for the assembler.)

HTH,
Erik
