I was playing with the IAT, and I noticed that fasm doesn't align names as many other programs do.

You've got to add an "align 4" in the import macro to "correct" this.

Code:

if used label & string eqtype ''
  align 4
  _label dw 0
     db string,0

I'm just wondering about the incidence of this misalignment.

No, the docs state that this only needs to be aligned to 2, not 4
