Use of "packed" could imply a local maximum-field-alignment=8 (or 0) for the type, so that always SizeOf( R) = 1.
So if there's consensus, I think I can change it.
The change sounds fine to me.
The combination of maximum-field-alignment and packed records should allow us to easily ensure records are correctly aligned, so I'd say go ahead with the changes as described - packed should override maximum-field-alignment.
As there seems to be agreement, I'll do this in the next version.
