This solves the problem I have. But, my comment about was trying to be a 
little more creative and allow it to align at less than page size if 
DEBUG_RODATA isn't set, as it does today. Sort of a packed kernel if you 
will...

But I will re-post shortly with just the ALIGN_DEBUG_RO change you suggest.

Thanks,
