This and the subsequent commit (61676733b451bc8b3a83dee47df71c5ffe3f19dd)
that regenerated all of the DCE/RPC dissectors doesn't pass the "eye test"
to me.  The newly generated code now has a lot of what appear to be
"duplicative" calls to ALIGN_TO_x_BYTES.  The second call is effectively a
"no-op" because the bytes have already been "aligned", but does waste a
small amount of processing power.  Looks like some additional logic in
NDR.pm may be necessary to prevent the duplication.
Yes, i have see the same think, but no look the why...

May be ask to Mathieu (from Samba team) the creator of this patch ?

Am I just missing something here?
