I would even allow the following, similar to prototypes:

struct foo {
	int		 foo_a;		/* comment */
	struct freddy	 foo_b;		/* Comment aligned as above. */
	union bigwords	*foo_c;		/* All comments aligned */
	unsigned char	 foo_chars;	/* to allow the eye to scan them */
					/* With overflow also aligned */
					/* the same as above. */
	struct bigstructures foo_vals[NUMSTRUCTS]; /* sometimes you just */
					/* have to bend the rules */
};
