[LUGSB] Make Error

[Chris Wright]

'packed', I believe, indicates that something smaller than a word
should not be aligned on word boundaries. It might take longer to
access the data in that case, but it'd be less wasted space.

It's just a warning, and it's probably in a struct, so unless you're
casting the address of the struct to a uchar_t* and then accessing it
as an array, you should be fine either way. Just turn off -Werror.
