Hello,
If you can come up with minimal code to reproduce the MSVC12 bug, then I can report it to them.
Thanks,
Brad

I tried to use /Zp16 [2] compiler option but it appears to only align to the minimum of the "natural" alignment and the Zp parameter, so it does not work. It seems we are forced to use __declspec(align(16)) [3] for all array declaration to fix this issue but that still leaves user and new code unprotected.
