+Subject: [PATCH] Align structs casts with time_t elements to 8byte boundary
+
+This helps with 64bit time_t conversion, especially where these
+structures are typcasted to another struct types which have time_t
+element, that now increases the natural alignment boundary of structures
+to 8-bytes.
+
+Fixes

+        struct sipe_core_private *sipe_private = SIPE_CORE_PRIVATE;
