sorry for replying to my own post.
I used gcc 2.95.3(20010315) and got these confusing results:

Compiler           switch          reported size of struct vp
djgpp gcc 2.95.2   -fpack-struct   80 eighty
djgpp gcc 2.95.3   -fpack-struct   79 seventynine
mingw gcc 2.95.2   -fpack-struct   79 seventynine
djgpp gcc 2.95.2                   80 eighty
djgpp gcc 2.95.3                   80 eighty
mingw gcc 2.95.2                   88 eightyeight

when manually added, the sum of the sizes of the struct members is _79_
.
