That's indeed 64-byte boundary, not 64-bit (as I stated at comment #0). The
magic happens here:

      frag_align_code (6, 4);
      record_alignment (now_seg, 6);

Now this magic applies to SVP64 mode as well (anything which enables
PPC_OPCODE_SVP64 and uses sv-prefixed insntructions; these together toggle
global svp64 boolean flag).
Actually we even had this code before, but now I made an explicit commit. I
hope you guys don't object if this is a separate commit.

I think this simple code concludes the task. It'd be great if we could have a
milestone and a budget assigned.
