possible section_alignment bug?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Review the source code
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.
Reviewing the section alignment code it looks like there is a bug.

It will always return val.

        if section_alignment and val % section_alignment:
            return section_alignment * ( val / section_alignment )
        return val

Probably should be:

        if section_alignment and val % section_alignment:
            return section_alignment * (( val / section_alignment ) + 1)
        return val

Hi, in Python 2.x the division (val / section_alignment) is a floor division 
(because both numbers are int) hence the subsequent multiplication will yield 
an integer multiple of section_alignment, as expected.
