Ahhh. I think I just made a false point here. I am not determining the
alignment of a "pure" reference type. Instead, I am calculating the
alignment of an object that happens to contain a reference type. Well,
you make a good point Ian. I am having trouble thinking of how I can use
the alignment of a pure reference type!

Don't think too hard!

LOL! :^D
