CORBA34 — Chapter/section: 15.4.2.2 "Request Body"

Suppose you are sending a request (GIOP 1.2 or 1.3) and the request will
be fragmented into two segments. The first segment is a Request message
that has the GIOP Header and part of the Request Header. The second
segment is a Fragment message that has a GIOP Header, a Fragment Header,
and the body is the remainder of the Request Header and the Request Body.
Section 15.4.2.2 of CORBA 3.0 states that the Request Body (in a Request
Message) should always be aligned on an 8 octet boundary.

My question is, in the above scenario, where the Request Body begins in
the Fragment message, should the Request Body be aligned on an 8 octet
boundary or not? I have not found anything in the specification that
explicitly says what to do.
