user-defined alignment in gfortran

Hi,

this sounds like an easy question but I couldn't find an answer in the
doc's:

How do I tell gfortran to allign a complex*16 array at 16 byte
boundaries? This is necessary on the Cell BE architecture for being able
to do DMA transfer. In C I can write __attribute__((aligned(16))) and
it works. How can I do that with gfortran?

Regards,
Timo
