And what's the size of a (procid *)? I'm assuming it's 4 bytes, making the
whole structure 48, by my count. (If it's only 2 bytes for the pointer,
then the struct is 44 bytes.) How do you get 42?

If you had to, you could always add a final element like:

 char junk[6];

But a better solution would be to see if your compiler itself supports
alignment (it probably does).
