I'm afraid this broke compatibility on CRIS (which doesn't do any alignment of
data) and changing it back will break it again. OTOH it also broke compatiblity
for all architectures since the table names are now limited to two characters
less, but that doesn't really matter for mainline (and I guess no sane person
would use a table name with more than 29 characters).

Not sure what to do about it, for know I've asked one of the axis.com (CRIS)
guys to confirm that fixing this would really break on CRIS.
